Alleles can be dominant or recessive
Ovarian cancer and Breast cancer are held in the gene mutations BRCA1 and BRCA2, which only one parents needs in their genes to pass on to their children. So it is dominant.
Pancreatic cancer is not caused by a single gene mutation that follows typical dominant or recessive inheritance patterns. Instead, it is usually the result of multiple genetic and environmental factors interacting over time. Some inherited genetic mutations, such as those in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, can increase the risk of pancreatic cancer, but they do not follow a simple dominant or recessive pattern.
is malignant melanoma dominant or recessive
Dominant traits are the traits that mask the recessive traits. The dominant traits are stronger than recessive!
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.
Recessive
recessive
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.
lung cancer is in the lungs, prostate cancer is in the prostate.
