Answer;
Two recessive alleles are the number of alleles that a person must have to have albinism.

Explanation;
When a trait is recessive, such as albinism, an individual must have two copies of a recessive allele to express that particular trait. Recessive alleles are denoted by a lowercase letter , such as b versus B. Only individuals with a bb genotye will express a recessive trait, hence, the offspring must receive one recessive trait from each parent to exhibit the recessive trait.
