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 else can I help you with?
Which form of a gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?
apples
What is a form of a gene that always has its effect when it is present?
dominant
What does recessive mean as it relates to genes?
A recessive gene is one that is only expressed if an individual has two copies of that gene. This means that the trait associated with the recessive gene is not visible unless an individual inherits two copies, one from each parent. If an individual inherits only one copy of a recessive gene, the dominant gene will be expressed instead.
A gene whose code is not expressed unless a similar allele is present is called an?
recessive gene
The dominant or recessive form that a gene takes is?
determined by its specific genetic instructions. Genes can be dominant (expressed when present) or recessive (expressed only when two copies are present) based on the interaction of alleles at a specific locus on a chromosome. The dominant form masks the recessive form in heterozygous individuals.
Which form of a gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?
apples
What is a form of a gene that always has its effect when it is present?
dominant
What is the form of a gene that is hidden or masked when any other form of that same gene is present?
The hidden or masked form of a gene is called recessive. Recessive genes are only expressed when an individual carries two copies of the recessive allele. When a dominant allele is present, it will be expressed instead of the recessive allele.
What is dominant in biology mean?
In genetics it refers to a gene that will always be expressed when present. In behavioral Biology dominance refers to members of a population that are basically in charge.
If a mouse inherits a dominant gene for a long tail and a recessive gene for a short tail what tail length will the mouse have?
whatever type of tail it wants to.Answer: When a dominant gene is present, it will always be expressed. The only time a recessive gene is expressed is when no dominant gene is present. Therefore, the mouse in question will have a long tail.
What gene that is always expressed and will produce a trait?
The gene that is always expressed and will produces a trait is a genetic statistic. This statistic is what is created when the gene is dominant.
Which form of gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?
In a situation where both a dominant and recessive allele are present in a gene pair, the dominant allele will be expressed phenotypically. The presence of a dominant allele overrides the expression of the recessive allele.
What does recessive mean as it relates to genes?
A recessive gene is one that is only expressed if an individual has two copies of that gene. This means that the trait associated with the recessive gene is not visible unless an individual inherits two copies, one from each parent. If an individual inherits only one copy of a recessive gene, the dominant gene will be expressed instead.

What genetic base can microcephaly have?
If the gene defect(s) are expressed during fetal development, the condition is present at birth. This is the congenital form of the disorder
What happens when 2 different allele s for the same trait are present?
if the two alleles are the same in the same box in the punnett square then that trait is expressed. when there is a double in a punnett square then that gene is always expressed
