A recessive trait is a trait that is not shown or expressed physically but is retained within the persons genes, whereas a dominant trait is a trait which opresses the recessive trait and is prodominantly shown or expressed physically.
For example it is possible for two red-haired parents, both with recessive dark haired genes, to have a dark haired child. they must both have the recessive gene or the dominant gene of red - hair will be expressed in the child
What else can I help you with?
When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
A recessive trait cannot be dominant over a dominant trait. Dominant traits are always expressed over recessive traits in heterozygous individuals because they mask the expression of the recessive trait.
What type of trait prevents the other type from being seen?
A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
Is albinism a dominant or recessive trait?
Albinism is a recessive trait.
A living thing that shows a dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive for the trait true or false?
False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.
What is the difference dominant and recessive trait?
Dominant traits are the traits that mask the recessive traits. The dominant traits are stronger than recessive!
What is the difference between the dominant and recessive allele for a trait?
An individual must have 2 recessive alleles in order for a trait to show up. One must only have 1 dominant allele in order for a trait to occur.
What is the relation between dominant and recessive alleles?
the dominant trait is the stronger one and the recessive trait is the weaker one
The difference between a dominate and a recessive trait is?
A dominant trait is expressed when an individual has one or two copies of the dominant allele, while a recessive trait is only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele. Dominant traits mask the expression of recessive traits in heterozygous individuals.
When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
A recessive trait cannot be dominant over a dominant trait. Dominant traits are always expressed over recessive traits in heterozygous individuals because they mask the expression of the recessive trait.
What type of trait prevents the other type from being seen?
A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
Is diabetes dominant or recessive trait?
It is a recessive trait
In a hybrid individual the trait that is covered and not expressed is the what trait?
recessive
Is albinism a dominant or recessive trait?
Albinism is a recessive trait.
A living thing that shows a dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive for the trait true or false?
False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.
What is the difference between a dominant trait and a recessive trait?
A dominate trait will most likely take over the recessive.
What is an observable trait of an organism that can mask a recessive trait?
The observable characteristic are called the genotype and any dominant trait can mask the recessive. An example would be Black Angus cattle can actually carry a red recessive trait because black is the dominant trait in cattle breeding
