What is a condition in which neither of two alleles of a gene is dominant or recessive?

When a gene is neither dominant nor recessive it is a condition called co-dominance. Or pseudo dominance. Individuals receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent.

∙ 11y agoit is called co dominance... i am have a phd in Biology so dont get me wrong :) thank you... Tyler

How is it possible to have neither allele dominant?
You have two recessive alleles
When neither allele is dominant what are they expressed as?
Both of the alleles must be recessive. The trait expressed is a recessive trait.
These alleles show their effect on the phenotype whenever they are present in the genotype?
Dominant alleles carry traits or characteristics that will show no matter what. Recessive alleles carry traits where you must be homozygous for the recessive trait in order for it to show. Dominant alleles are represented by capital letters (EX: R or M) Recessive alleles are represented by lower case letters (EX: r or m) In order for a dominant allele to show, you can have either RR or Rr, since it is dominant. However, in order for a recessive allele to show, you MUST have rr. Hope this helps!
When neither of the genes are dominant or recessive the genes are said to be?
genes can be codominant for example in blood groups a person can be A,B,AB or O. neither A nor B is more or less dominant than each other but they are dominant over O. there are many other types of dominance/recessive relationships in genes. you could look up epistasis on wikipedia to get a better idea of the bigger picture.
What kind of allele must an organism inherit in order for a recessive trait to show up?
Neither of the parents will be affected. There may not be any one with he disease in either of the parents families (or there might be). Since each parent is a carrier and has a 50/50 chance of passing one copy of the gene to each child 1/4 of the children will not get the gene, 1/2 will be carriers (1 copy) and 1/4 wil be affected (2 copies).
What do you call a condition in which neither two alleles of a gene is dominant or recessive?
Codominace
What is it when an allele is neither dominant nor recessive?
this is called codominance when alleles are neither dominant or recessive.
If the alleles are neither dominant or recessive what happens?
If neither are Dominant Or Recessive then its called co dominance or spuedo - dominance
What is codominance?
It's like incomplete dominance, but instead of one allele not being completely dominant for a trait, both alleles for that specific trait are dominant.A condition in which neither of two alleles of a gene is dominant nor recessive
Alleles are neither dominant nor recessive?
codominance
How is it possible to have neither allele dominant?
You have two recessive alleles
Why some chromosomes are recessive and the others are domainent?
Actually a chromosome consists of many genes/alleles and is neither recessive or dominant in and of itself.
Is a condition in which neither of the two genes in a gene masks the other?
the scientific terms used to describe when neither alleles are dominant nor recessive is codominance
When neither gene in a genotype pair is dominant and neither gene is recessive the genes are said to be .?
Incomplete dominant alleles.
What is it called when the alleles are neither dominant nor recessive?
Incomplete Dominance.
What is a condition which neither of the two genes in a gene pair masks the other?
the scientific terms used to describe when neither alleles are dominant nor recessive is codominance
When neither allele is dominant what are they expressed as?
Both of the alleles must be recessive. The trait expressed is a recessive trait.
