What else can I help you with?
What gene is always expressed?
Dominant genes will always be expressed however recessive genes would need to be inherited from both parents
What type of allele masks the expression of the recessive allele?
Two recessive alleles can not take over a dominant allele because there are only two alleles in a pair. This can only happen if there is a mutation because the dominant always takes over the recessive.
Are the fathers genes always the dominant genes?
No, the father's genes are not always dominant. Inheritance patterns can vary depending on the specific genes and traits being considered. Some traits may be dominant if they are expressed over recessive genes, while other traits may exhibit co-dominance or incomplete dominance.
If an animal with 2 dominant genes for a trait has offspring with an animal with 2 recessive genes for same trait their offspring can only have what?
Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.
Can a recessive gene be hidden from a dominant?
The dominant gene will always "cover up" the recessive gene, although there are instances of codominance, in which both phenotypes will be displayed, because one gene is not completely dominant over the other. There is also what is called 'incomplete dominance', when the actual phenotype is somewhere between the two.
Which genes are dominant and which are recessive?
Dominant genes are always expressed in preference to recessive genes in cased where both genes are present.
Recessive genes will always be masked by dominant genes This is Mendel's principle of?
This is Mendel's principle of dominance. Dominant alleles will always mask the presence of recessive alleles in a heterozygous genotype.
What are the difference between dominant and recessive genes?
Dominant genes will cover up recessive genes. Take a simplified version of eye color for example. Brown is dominant and blue is recessive. Someone might have the allele for both brown and blue, but their eyes will be brown because of the dominent brown gene. If there are two parents that carry the recessive gene, neither will be blue eyed, but they will have a chance of having a blue eyed child if both pass on the recessive gene.
Do dominant genes affect recessive genes?
The dominant genes take over, and then the recessive genes hide away
What is the difference between dominant and recessive gene?
There are no such things as dominant and recessive genes. There are only dominant and recessive alleles. Dominant alleles are parts of a gene that present its features over the recessive allele, which is the one that is always masked by the dominant allele. The recessive allele's trait only shows if both of the alleles in a trait are recessive.
What gene is always expressed?
Dominant genes will always be expressed however recessive genes would need to be inherited from both parents
What type of allele masks the expression of the recessive allele?
Two recessive alleles can not take over a dominant allele because there are only two alleles in a pair. This can only happen if there is a mutation because the dominant always takes over the recessive.
What do you call oransim that posssses two dominant or two recessive genes for a single trait?
Homozygous dominant for two dominant genes or homozygous recessive for two recessive genes.
How are dominant and recessive genes related?
Dominate them. Recessive alleles do not show in your phenotype unless you have two of the same recessive allele. But if you inherit one dominant and one recessive, it is the dominant that always shows in your phenotype.
How do dominant and recessive genes work?
explain how dominant genes work
Can recessive genes become dominant?
Recessive genes do not become dominant. Dominant genes mask the expression of recessive genes in the presence of both alleles. However, if a recessive gene is selected for over time through breeding, it can become more prevalent in a population.
Are the fathers genes always the dominant genes?
No, the father's genes are not always dominant. Inheritance patterns can vary depending on the specific genes and traits being considered. Some traits may be dominant if they are expressed over recessive genes, while other traits may exhibit co-dominance or incomplete dominance.
