Dominant and Recessive refer to different types of genes a child gains from its parents. In general, a dominant gene overpowers a recessive gene (like more people have brown eyes than blue eyes), but there are some cases where recessive genes are visible on a child over the dominant gene.

Are alleles dominant or recessive?

Alleles are neither entirely recessive nor entirely dominate. An allele is any one of a number of alternative forms of the same gene on a chromosome.For example: say a flower only blooms either red or white flowers. There is a different allele for each color-- a red allele and a white allele. Now, one color may be dominate over the other recessive gene. For example, if the red color was dominate and the white color was recessive, then those certain alleles would be dominate and recessive, respectively. But alleles in general cannot be either recessive or dominate. It depends on the gene and it depends on the trait.
