What genes are represented by capital letters?
In genetics, capital letters typically represent dominant alleles of a gene. For example, in a gene with two alleles, one dominant (represented by a capital letter, such as "A") and one recessive (represented by a lowercase letter, such as "a"), the presence of at least one capital letter indicates that the dominant trait will be expressed in the organism's phenotype. In contrast, lowercase letters represent recessive alleles, which are only expressed when two copies are present.
What form is a gene that is always expressed if present?
This is the dominate gene, and is normally represent by a capital letter. Then gene which is not expressed is the recessive gene and is represented by a lower case letter. For example the if someone had expressed a brown eyed phenotype and did not carry the gene for blue eyes it be represented as BB (B standing for Brown). If they expressed the brown eye phenotype and also carried the gene for blue eyes it would be represented as Bb (b does not stand for blue it stands for NOT BROWN) While if someone had blue eyes it would be represented as bb
What element symbol does si stand for?
'si' does stand for any chemical element!!!!! If you mean 'Si', then it is silicon. NB For single letter elemental symbols are ALWAYS a CAPITAL letter. For two letter elemental symbols, the first letter is always a capital letter amd the second letter is small /lower case. This is the International IUPAC standard, and as found in the Periodic Table. Hence, silicon is 'Si' , not 'si'
What is phenotype for RR?
It's a genotype. The phenotype is a physical manifestation of the genotype, which means that it's what happens on the outside because an organism has the gene. An example of a phenotype would be if someone had blue eyes or something. The genotype is the two-letter abbreviation thingy.
If an organism expresses a recessive phenotype can you tell its genotype?
Yes because if the phenotype is recessive there is only one possible genotype, little letter little letter ex. rr (wrikled pea plant seed), cc (albino), tt (short pea plant) whereas if you have a dominante phenotype there are two possible genotypes, big letter big letter or big letter little letter ex. RR Rr (round pea plant seed), CC Cc (normal skin pigmentation) TT Tt (Tall Pea plant)
What does a punnet square capital letter stand for?
A capital letter in a punnet square stands for a domminant trait, or one that will most likely appear. --Stew Pidacel
What does the capital letter "M" stand for in chemistry?
In chemistry, the capital letter "M" stands for molarity, which is a unit of concentration used to measure the amount of a substance dissolved in a solution.
When you see a phenotype such as Tt why doesn't the recessive trait show?
Actually, Tt is the way the genotype is written. The phenotype is what one (generally) sees externally.As T is dominant to t (that's why it's written as a Capital letter), it is the manifestation of T that shows up in the phenotype; assuming no co-dominance or incomplete dominance is also involved.
What genes are represented by capital letters?
In genetics, capital letters typically represent dominant alleles of a gene. For example, in a gene with two alleles, one dominant (represented by a capital letter, such as "A") and one recessive (represented by a lowercase letter, such as "a"), the presence of at least one capital letter indicates that the dominant trait will be expressed in the organism's phenotype.

What phenotype is produced by AB genotype?
The genotype AA represents a homozygous dominant genotype. The capital letter "A" represents the dominant allele, while the lowercase letter "a" would represent the recessive allele. If both dominant alleles are present in a genotype (homozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A" phenotype. If one dominant allele and one recessive allele are present (heterozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A". Finally, if both recessive alleles "a" are present (homozygous recessive) then the phenotype is "a". Therefore, the answer to your question is the genotype AA would result in an "A" phenotype because the genotype is homozygous dominant.
What is dominant?
Dominant refers to an allele that is always expressed in the phenotype of an organism, masking the effect of a recessive allele when present. In genetics, dominant traits are represented by uppercase letters and are typically denoted with a capital letter.
What does capital letter T stand for in measurement?

'si' does stand for any chemical element!!!!! If you mean 'Si', then it is silicon. NB For single letter elemental symbols are ALWAYS a CAPITAL letter.

Do dominate traits have capital letters?
No, dominate traits do not have capital letters. The term "dominant traits" refers to the phenotype that is expressed when an individual has one dominant allele for a particular trait. It is not capitalized unless at the start of a sentence.
What gene pair consists of a dominant or recessive alleles?
Autosomal genes that can be expressed by Mendelian genetics. The question isn't very specific but the easiest way to determine a gene pair which consists of dominant or recessive alleles is to understand the terms. In most genotypic descriptions, the phenotype of a specific organism is represented by letters. A dominant allele controls the phenotype of the organism and is usually a capital letter. The recessive allele is usually represented by a lower case letter which may or may not be the same as the upper case. Further research will lead you to Mendelian genetics where theories such as duplicate recessive epistasis results in the lower case letter in the phenotype controlling the phenotype of the organism. Hope this helps. :-)
