Answer:

A dominant allele is a variation of a gene that will produce a certain phenotype, even in the presence of other alleles. A dominant allele typically encodes for a functioning protein. ... When a dominant allele is completely dominant over another allele, the other allele is known as recessive.

A recessive allele is a variety of genetic code that does not create a phenotype if a dominant allele is present. ... A heterozygous individual will appear the same as a homozygous dominant individual. This means that an organisms with two dominant alleles appear the same as an organism with only one functioning allele.

Answer:

Explanation:

Remember that a niche is an inhabited areas where organisms essentially behave a little like humans each filling their own individual role. These aren't extremely common to find but the whole concept of it is that these organisms will function peacefully and trying to help one another survive.
