What is a dominant allale?

A dominant allele is a form of gene that masks the presence of a recessive allele when both are present in an individual. This means that the trait associated with the dominant allele will be expressed in the phenotype. Dominant alleles are typically represented by uppercase letters.


What best describes the F1 offspring of mendels two factor cross?

The F1 offspring of Mendel's two-factor cross will all display the dominant phenotype for both traits due to the dominance of the alleles. They will be heterozygous for both traits, carrying one dominant and one recessive allele for each trait.


Can a short pea plant ever be produce from crossing two tall pea plants?

No, the short pea trait is recessive and the tall pea plant trait is dominant. This means that if the plant is a hybrid, it has to be a tall pea plant. The dominant traits "mask" the recessive traits. The plant take one trait from their mom and one from their dad. If either the mom or the dad was not a tall, not hybrid pea plant then their kids would have to be tall be cause they would have one dominant, tall trait


What is an ecological community characterized by a dominant vegetation called?

An ecological community characterized by a dominant vegetation is called a biome. Biomes are distinct regions that are defined by their climate, soil type, and dominant plant life. Examples include rainforests, deserts, and grasslands.


What is the dominant trait when a red-eyed fly mates with a blue-eyed fly resulting in offspring that all have red eyes?

A dominant trait, when present, is always expressed. So if the offspring of a red eyed and blue eyed mating are all red, then red must be dominant because it is the trait expressed.

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!


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 do you xxplain dominant and recessive?

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.

Which form of gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?

In a situation where both a dominant and recessive allele are present in a gene pair, the dominant allele will be expressed phenotypically. The presence of a dominant allele overrides the expression of the recessive allele.
