Capital letter such as R for dominant and r for recessive trait
A dominant allele is typically represented by an uppercase letter in genetics, while the corresponding recessive allele is represented by the same letter in lowercase. For example, if "B" is the dominant allele for brown eyes, "b" would be the recessive allele for blue eyes.
A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
In eyes, it would be brown is dominant, and blue is recessive. Free earlobe allele is said to be dominant over the attached earlobe allele. When an organism has two dominant alleles for a trait, it is called homozygous dominant. Two recessive alleles for a trait is homozygous recessive.
Non-Mendelian traits are:A trait with no clearly dominant alleleA trait with four allelesA trait controlled by many genes
A trait or allele that is only expressed when two alleles of the same type are inherited is called recessive. This means that the individual must inherit two copies of the recessive allele to exhibit the trait. If an individual inherits one dominant allele and one recessive allele for a trait, the dominant allele will be expressed.
A dominant allele is typically represented by an uppercase letter in genetics, while the corresponding recessive allele is represented by the same letter in lowercase. For example, if "B" is the dominant allele for brown eyes, "b" would be the recessive allele for blue eyes.
A recessive trait. When a recessive allele is with a dominant allele, only the dominanate trait can be seen.
The ruling trait is the Dominant trait.
dominant
A dominant genetic trait appears in every generation of offspring because only one copy of the dominant allele is needed for the trait to be expressed.
The type of trait that can be masked is known as a recessive trait. In genetics, recessive traits require two copies of the recessive allele (one from each parent) to be expressed phenotypically, while a dominant allele can overshadow or mask the expression of the recessive allele. As a result, individuals with one dominant and one recessive allele will display the dominant trait, concealing the presence of the recessive trait.
Crossing a recessive trait with a dominant trait involves breeding an organism that expresses the dominant phenotype with one that expresses the recessive phenotype. In genetics, the dominant trait will typically mask the expression of the recessive trait in the offspring. This can help determine the genotype of the dominant organism; if any offspring exhibit the recessive trait, the dominant parent must carry a recessive allele. This type of cross is often used in Mendelian genetics to study inheritance patterns.
Genotypes are written differently depending on what gene you are referring to. A capital letter means that allele is dominant over an allele written with a lower case letter. For example B is dominant over b. Some genotypes are written using a superscript, such as IAIB for the genotype of a person with blood type AB. Or HbsHbs for a person with sickle cell anaemia (compared to HbSHbS for a person without sickle cell). In this case Hb stands for haemoglobin. Usually the letters chosen relate to the trait involved... for example, if talking about tall plants T would be used to represent the tall allele and t would represent the short allele.
codominance
The child would have A plus blood type since A blood type is a dominant trait while O blood type is a recessive trait
The trait that can not be seen is recessive to the one that is dominant.
AB blood is co-dominant.
