Hello there,

Dominant and recessive traits can be tested by reproduction. For example, if I was to grow a tall pea plant and a short pea plant that are true breeds, and if I was to cross pollinate them to form a hybrid pea plant, the new pea plant offspring would exhibit the dominant trait out of tall and short (In this case tall). When reproduction occurs, two alleles for a given gene will be introduced, and only the dominant trait will be used and exhibited by the offspring. That way, if we want to determine whether a trait is dominant, we will need to test through reproduction.

Hope this helps!
