Complete dominance
The dominant allele will always show physically in an individual, while the recessive allele will only be expressed if paired with another recessive allele.
The two types of alleles are dominant and recessive. The recessive allele will still be present but the recessive trait is not usually seen. However, is not always overruled. In the cases of codominance and incomplete dominance, the recessive trait still shows through some of the dominant one.
A dominant allele is an allele that can take over a recessive allele, so if you have a dominant allele and a recessive allele, then the offspring will most likely have a dominant allele over a recessive allele. The dominant allele is expressed over the recessive allele.
A dominant allele is expressed when an individual carries one or two copies of that allele. A recessive allele is only expressed when an individual carries two copies of that allele. Dominant alleles are typically passed on to offspring if at least one parent carries the dominant allele.
Yes, the dominant allele, if present, always overpowers the recessive one. There are exceptions though, when there are two different dominant alleles. These show in the form of co-dominance (two dominant traits that blend) and incomplete dominance (two dominant traits that both appear).
An allele that is always expressed when it is present is the dominant allele.
In a relationship where one allele is completely dominant over another in genetic inheritance, the dominant allele will always be expressed in the phenotype, while the recessive allele will only be expressed if both alleles are recessive. This is known as complete dominance.
the dominant allele is expressed when two (assuming you mean dominant and recessive) alleles are present. however, if the alleles are codominant they are both expressed.
In heterozygous individuals, only the dominant allele is expressed. The recessive allele is present, but not expressed
No, the dominant allele will be expressed in the individual's phenotype, masking the presence of the recessive allele. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual inherits two copies of the recessive allele.
The alleles are not always both expressed.Take the simplest example, a case when there are only two alleles for a trait, R and r. When the organism is a heterozygote, meaning that it has both alleles with a genotype of Rr, only the phenotype carried by the dominant allele, the R, will be expressed. The dominant allele masks the phenotype of the recessive allele. A case in which only the dominant phenotype is expressed in a heterozygote is a case of complete dominance.*Cases where the dominant allele does not completely mask the recessive allele are cases of incomplete dominance and co-dominance.In incomplete dominance, the dominant allele has some effect on the recessive allele, but not a full effect. This results in a third phenotype in the population. Think red and white flowers leading to pink flowers.In co-dominance, the dominant allele has as much effect on the phenotype of the organism as the recessive allele. Think red and white flowers now leading to red and white streaked flowers.
Not necessarily. In heterozygous individuals, the dominant allele will be expressed over the recessive allele, but this will depend on the specific trait being considered. There are instances where both alleles may contribute to the phenotype, resulting in incomplete dominance or co-dominance.
The dominant allele will always show physically in an individual, while the recessive allele will only be expressed if paired with another recessive allele.
An allele that always shows up in an organism's phenotype and masks the expression of another allele is called dominant. Dominant alleles are always expressed, even when paired with a recessive allele.
The two types of alleles are dominant and recessive. The recessive allele will still be present but the recessive trait is not usually seen. However, is not always overruled. In the cases of codominance and incomplete dominance, the recessive trait still shows through some of the dominant one.

Recessive traits are not expressed when the dominant form is present. This is because the dominant allele masks the expression of the recessive allele in the heterozygous condition. Only when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele will the recessive trait be expressed.
