If an individual has one recessive allele and one dominant allele, they are known as heterozygous. The dominant trait will be expressed.
The name of the gene pair that consists of a dominant and recessive allele, i.e. (Xx) will be a heterozygous allele. In this situation, the characteristics of the dominant characteristic will mask that of the recessive allele. People have have a heterozygous genotype may be carriers for diseases that reside on the recessive allele.
No, the dominant allele will be expressed in the individual's phenotype, masking the presence of the recessive allele. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele.
"Homozygous recessive" means having two copies of a recessive allele for a particular gene. This usually results in the expression of the recessive trait.
Dominent. Simple- you have two types of Alleles, Dominent and Reccessive. Imagine a punnet square for the allele that causes albinoism (A). One parent has Aa, or one dominent allele and one reccessive allele for the trait. If the dominent skin-tone gene wasn't there (A), then it would be AA and he would be an albino. But since he has a dominent allele, he has normal color. If he made a baby with another Aa combination, they would have 25% chance of having an AA baby with no reccessive allele, a 50% chance of having an identical Aa combination, and a 25% chance of having an albino baby, AA.
One copy of each allele, resulting in the offspring having one dominant allele and one recessive allele. This combination is known as heterozygous.

A dominant allele is an allele where its phenotype will always be represented when the allele for that gene is present. A recessive allele can be masked by a dominant allele when a dominant and recessive allele are present for the same gene. A recessive allele will only present itself when two recessive alleles for a trait are present.
One copy of each allele, resulting in the offspring having one dominant allele and one recessive allele. This combination is known as heterozygous.
A dominant alle masks the expression of the recessive trait in a heterozygous genotype, a recessive allele is the phenotpye expressed is the recessive trait.
I don't know and don't care
If you are heterozygous this means you carry both a dominant and recessive allele. if you are heterozygous for a recessive trait then you will have a dominant and recessive allele. example: let T represent tall and t represent short. a person with heterozygous for a recessive trait will have 'Tt'.
For a person to express a recessive trait, such as having a big thumb, they must inherit two copies of the recessive allele, one from each parent. This means that both parents must either be carriers of the recessive allele (heterozygous) or express the trait themselves (homozygous recessive). If a person has a big thumb, it indicates that they possess the recessive alleles from both parents.
Yes, because Polydactyly is a dominant allele.
In eyes, it would be brown is dominant, and blue is recessive. Free earlobe allele is said to be dominant over the attached earlobe allele. When an organism has two dominant alleles for a trait, it is called homozygous dominant. Two recessive alleles for a trait is homozygous recessive.
