Dominant alleles are written in upper case (i.e, 'A'), while recessive alleles are lower case (i.e, 'a')
In a Punnett square, a capital letter denotes the dominant allele and a lowercase letter denotes the recessive allele.
a pair of recessive genes
The letters on the outside of the Punnett square stand for the alleles of each parent. One parent's alleles are written across the top of the square, and the other parent's alleles are written along the left side of the square. The pairs of alleles inside the square represent all the possible genotypes for their offspring.
The letters in a Punnett square represent the alleles for a particular gene. Typically, uppercase letters are used to represent dominant alleles, while lowercase letters represent recessive alleles. The letters are combined to show possible genetic outcomes in offspring.
The two terms for having matching alleles for a certain trait are "homozygous dominant" (two dominant alleles) and "homozygous recessive" (two recessive alleles).

Dominant alleles are shown by a capital letter and recessive alleles are lowercase letters.

In a Punnett square, a capital letter denotes the dominant allele and a lowercase letter denotes the recessive allele.
a pair of recessive genes
Alleles are represented as: Gg Where G is the dominant trait and g is the recessive trait Therefore, homozygous dominant would be: GG Homozygous recessive would be: gg and heterozygous would be Gg
In genetics, a recessive allele is typically represented by a lowercase letter. For example, if the dominant allele is represented by "A", the recessive allele for the same trait would be represented by "a".
A punnet square uses letters to represent dominant and recessive alleles.
Alleles can be dominant or recessive
Dominate them. Recessive alleles do not show in your phenotype unless you have two of the same recessive allele. But if you inherit one dominant and one recessive, it is the dominant that always shows in your phenotype.
