There are no such things as dominant and recessive genes. There are only dominant and recessive alleles. Dominant alleles are parts of a gene that present its features over the recessive allele, which is the one that is always masked by the dominant allele. The recessive allele's trait only shows if both of the alleles in a trait are recessive.
What else can I help you with?
Genes that are only seen when paired with a recessive gene?
if u have a recessive gene with a recessive gene then u can see the recessive gene but if you have a dominant gene with a recessive gene you can only see the dominant gene hope that helps:)
Can two dominant genes equal a recessive gene?
it could but then u would be deformed but usually it cant
Can a recissive gene be dominant?
No, a recessive gene cannot be dominant. In genetics, dominant genes are expressed over recessive genes when present in an individual's genotype. This means that if a gene is recessive, it will only be expressed if an individual inherits two copies of that specific recessive gene.
What is the different between dominant and recessive?
Dominant trait is the one which is expressed when the homologous pair of genes controlling it are either homozygous or Hetrozygous dominant; on the other hand recessive trait has both genes to be homozygous recessive. in fact trait is controlled by the form of genes. Dominant gene expresses even when it is in the company of recessive gene. However recessive gene expresses only when in company of recessive gene
What gene won't display its trait in the prescience of a dominate trait?
A recessive gene will not display its trait in the presence of a dominant trait. A recessive gene only expresses its trait when paired with another copy of the same recessive gene.
Can a recessive gene be hidden from a dominant?
The dominant gene will always "cover up" the recessive gene, although there are instances of codominance, in which both phenotypes will be displayed, because one gene is not completely dominant over the other. There is also what is called 'incomplete dominance', when the actual phenotype is somewhere between the two.
What is an organism that has a dominant and a recessive copy of a gene?
dogs have a dominant and a recessive copy of a gene
What gene will exhibit its traits even in a prensesce of a recessive gene?
A dominant gene will exhibit its traits even in the presence of a recessive gene. This is because the dominant gene masks the expression of the recessive gene when present in the same individual.
Is a situation in which a dominant allele completely masks a recessive allele for a gene.?
If you have 2 dominant alleles, the gene will be dominant, if you have 2 recessive alleles, the gene will be recessive. But if you have 1 recessive and 1 dominant, the Dominant allele will mask the recessive one.
How many copies of a recessive gene does it take to overpower a dominant gene?
It takes 8 copies of a recessive gene to overpeower dominant gene
What is the opposite of homozygous of dominant?
heterozygous recessive
Genes that are only seen when paired with a recessive gene?
if u have a recessive gene with a recessive gene then u can see the recessive gene but if you have a dominant gene with a recessive gene you can only see the dominant gene hope that helps:)
A gene is recessive when?
Most genes have two copies of each gene with dominant gene "trumping" the recessive one. The gene is recessive because it is said not to do much of anything unless paired with another recessive gene, but if paired with a dominant gene, the dominant gene wins.
Can two dominant genes equal a recessive gene?
it could but then u would be deformed but usually it cant
Can a recissive gene be dominant?
No, a recessive gene cannot be dominant. In genetics, dominant genes are expressed over recessive genes when present in an individual's genotype. This means that if a gene is recessive, it will only be expressed if an individual inherits two copies of that specific recessive gene.
What is the difference between a dominant gene and a recessive gene?
In some but not all cases a dominant gene is a functional version (allele) of that gene while a recessive gene is a nonfunctional (or less functional) version (allele) of that gene. As the dominant gene produces a fully normally functioning protein if it is inherited in even just one copy that protein will "dominate" over the protein produced (if any is produced) by the recessive gene. Sometimes there are multiple different dominant alleles and/or multiple different recessive alleles of a specific gene (e.g. human blood types have 2 dominant alleles: A and B that produce different antigen proteins and 1 recessive allele: O that produces no antigen protein).
The weaker of two genes is called what?
The weaker of two genes is called the recessive gene. In the presence of a dominant gene, the recessive gene is not expressed in the organism's phenotype.
