Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that the disease manifests only when an individual has two copies of the mutated CFTR gene, one from each parent. In this case, the normal allele is dominant over the mutated allele, which means that carriers with one normal and one mutated allele do not exhibit symptoms of the disease. Therefore, cystic fibrosis is not an example of complete dominance, as the presence of one normal allele can mask the effects of the mutated allele.
