Question

Answer

Dominance Recessive
1Dominance is the trait of a gene which is always expressed.1Recessive is a trait of a gene which is not always expressed
2A dominant allele can express itself even if a similar allele is not paired to express a phenotype, For example, the height of a plant. If T is tall, t is short; Tt will result in tall plant.2A recessive allele can express itself only in the presence of another recessive allele for a phenotype. For example, the height of a plant. Two alleles with a recessive trait, t for dwarfness, will result in a dwarf plant.
