What describes a trait that is covered over or dominated by another form of the trait and seems to disappear?

A trait that is covered over or dominated by another form of the trait and seems to disappear is called a recessive trait. In genetics, recessive traits only manifest when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele.


What did Mendel call the observed trait and the trait that seemed to disappear?

he called the observed traits dominant and the disapear traits recessive.


What is the medical term meaning a trait that seems to recede into the background?

The medical term for a trait that seems to recede into the background is "subclinical." This term is often used to describe a condition or characteristic that is present, but does not present with obvious symptoms or manifestations. It is also referred to as being below the threshold of clinical detection.


Is there Kind of trait that seems to vanish in the offspring produced in Mendal's first experiment?

RECESSIVE trait


Why did one of the characteristics for example dwarfness or white flower color disappear in the F1 generation of Mendal's crosses?

Since the F1 generation of crosses is a cross between two pure traits (for example, TT for tall and tt for short/dwarfness), the offspring of the pure parents all have the genotype of Tt: 100% of offspring will be tall. The dwarfness seems to "disappear" because the capital T is dominant, while the lowercase t (for shortness) is recessive. Dominant dominates a recessive trait, so only tallness appears and dwarfness seems to disappear. Additional Info: However, even though the dwarfness seems to "disappear" it is still in the genotype although it does not appear in the F1 generation. In the F2 generation, there will be a 25% chance of the offspring having the trait dwarfness, because the F1 generation is crossed (Tt x Tt).


When traits seem to disappear when two different genes for the same trait are present?

NO, the traits do not disappear they are simply "masked". According to Mendelian theory there are DOMINANT (A) and RECESSIVE (a) traits. When Aa is present the recessive trait is masked therefore it does not show up. These are called alleles.
