It is Dominant. R is the dominant and r is the recessive. The dominate trait shadows the recessive trait.

Is dominant. dominant can be RR or Rr. but when its recessive its rr.

∙ 14y agoCapitals are generally used to denote the dominant trait. In homozygous dominant individuals, genotype RR, the phenotype will be R. In homozygous recessive individuals, genotype rr, the phenotype will be r and in heterozygous individuals, genotype Rr, the phenotype will be R.

∙ 13y agoIn this case the only phenotype that the organism is going to exhibit is R, this can be seen by conducting a punnet square cross,
R R
R RR RR
r Rr Rr
Therefore the possible genotypes that can be generated in this cross are RR with a frequency of 50% and Rr with a frequency of 50%.
But if R is dominent to r then the only characteristic that you'll see exhibited in the organism is the R characteristic.
Hope that helps

What ultimately determines the phenotype of an individual?
Phenotype is what traits are expressed by the organism. So what ever is the dominant Genotype of the organism will determine the Phenotype. For example a dominant R gene will be the Phenotype in RR and Rr. However, if the organism has two recessive rr then the recessive gene will determine the Phenotype.
When crossing a Rr genotype with a rr genotype what will the ratio of RR to rr be in the resulting generation?
50%Rr to 50%rr
The phenotype of the rr genotype would be?
The genotypes would be: RR, RR, RR, and Rr As for the phenotypes, you cannot tell without knowing what the alleles represent.
When traits are inherited in an incomplete dominance pattern what is true about the phenotype of the heterozygotes?
A trait that exhibits incomplete dominance, is one in which the heterozygous offspring will have a phenotype that is a blend between the two parent organisms. An example of this is when a homozygous red sweet pea flower crossed with a homozygous white sweet pea flower, their offspring will be heterozygous and have the pink phenotype, rather than either red or white.
What is pheonotype?
Phenotype is the physical appearance of an organism. Genotype is the genetic makeup of an organism. For example, if you cross two plants that have the genetic makeup RR for flowers (let's say they're red), then the offspring will all have RR for flowers (homozygous red). The genotype is 100% RR, and the phenotype is 100% Red.
If R is dominant to r the offspring of the cross of RR with rr will be homozygous?
R R r Rr Rr r Rr Rr That is the Punnet Square. The genotype will be 100% Rr in the cross. The phenotype will be whatever phenotype is constituted by your dominant allele.

When crossing a Rr genotype with a rr genotype what will the ratio of RR to rr be in the resulting generation?
50%Rr to 50%rr
Would Rr show a dominant or recessive phenotype?
dominant
What was the genotype of the offspring that did not share the parent's phenotype?
The genotype of the offspring that had the same phenotype as the parents is rr or wrinkled. The phenotype for the seed shape of both parent plants is round.
The phenotype of the rr genotype would be?
The genotypes would be: RR, RR, RR, and Rr As for the phenotypes, you cannot tell without knowing what the alleles represent.

What gametes will be produced by each parent RR x rr?
The genotype is always the "gene formula", in this case Rr.The phenotype is the expression of the genes (how the animal or plant looks, functions, or behaves). In this case, it's a bit hard to say what the phenotype would be without knowing what R is!If the question is about garden peas, and if R is the dominant allele responsible for round seeds, and r the recessive allele producing wrinkled seeds, then the genotype Rr will produce the phenotype of the dominant allele, i.e. round seeds.
What is phenotype for RR?
It's a genotype. The phenotype is a physical manifestation of the genotype, which means that it's what happens on the outside because an organism has the gene. An example of a phenotype would be if someone had blue eyes or something. The genotype is the two-letter abbreviation thingy.
If an organism expresses a recessive phenotype can you tell its genotype?
Yes because if the phenotype is recessive there is only one possible genotype, little letter little letter ex. rr (wrikled pea plant seed), cc (albino), tt (short pea plant) whereas if you have a dominante phenotype there are two possible genotypes, big letter big letter or big letter little letter ex. RR Rr (round pea plant seed), CC Cc (normal skin pigmentation) TT Tt (Tall Pea plant)
What is recessive gene and dominant gene?
A dominant gene is always expressed if present, and the recessive gene is only expressed with the homozygous recessive genotype. For example, if the dominant gene is red (represented by the letter R) and the recessive gene is white (represented by the letter r), then a homozygous dominant organism's genotype will be RR, and its phenotype will be red. If the organism is homozygous recessive, then the genotype will be rr and the phenotype will be white. If the organism is heterozygous, then the genotype will be Rr, and the organism will be red.
