Alleles that have an effect on an organism's phenotype are called dominant alleles. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles in heterozygous individuals, resulting in the dominant allele's phenotype being expressed.
The physical result of a combination of alleles is known as the phenotype, which refers to the physical characteristics or traits of an organism. Different combinations of alleles can lead to variations in the phenotype, such as eye color, height, or hair texture.
Genes that come together with different alleles are called _____.
The likelihood of inheriting a genetic trait with more than two alleles is rare. When a trait has multiple alleles, it can result in a wider range of possible expressions of that trait. This can lead to more variation in the phenotype among individuals who inherit different combinations of alleles for that trait.
The general term for an allele that masks the presence of another allele in the phenotype is "dominant." Dominant alleles are expressed phenotypically when present, masking the effects of recessive alleles.
When a heterozygous genotype (two different alleles) results in an intermediate phenotype, this is either codominance or incomplete dominance. If it is codominance, then both alleles are expressed together in the phenotype. If it is incomplete dominance, the two alleles produce a blended phenotype rather than both alleles being expressed together.
It is called codominance or incomplete dominance.
Incomplete Dominance
Alleles that have an effect on an organism's phenotype are called dominant alleles. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles in heterozygous individuals, resulting in the dominant allele's phenotype being expressed.
Codominance is an inheritable pattern where two different alleles for a gene are both expressed in the phenotype, resulting in a unique trait that displays characteristics of both alleles. This leads to a distinct phenotype that is a combination of the traits produced by both alleles.
you mean phenotype, and its dominant alleles

complete dominace
When the alleles are different the organism is heterozygous for that trait. Another way of putting it is to say the genotype is heterozygous for that trait. The dominant allele will be seen in the phenotype ie what is displayed.Most traits are governed by more than one pair of alleles.
In a heterozygous genotype, where an individual possesses two different alleles for a particular gene, the phenotype can be influenced by the dominance relationship between the alleles. Typically, the dominant allele will mask the expression of the recessive allele, resulting in the phenotype reflecting only the dominant trait. However, in some cases, such as incomplete dominance or codominance, both alleles can contribute to the phenotype. Therefore, it is not accurate to say that both alleles always show in the phenotype.
