Answer: The correct answer is- Recessive.

Allele is described as an alternative form of a gene. There are two forms of a gene that is dominant allele ( represented by capital letter) and recessive allele ( represented by small letter).

Recessive allele does not exhibit its phenotype in presence of dominant allele. In other words, dominant allele masks the expression of recessive allele.

Example of recessive allele- 't' for dwarf height of pea plant. It is masked by dominant allele 'T' that represents tall plant height.

Oksanka [162]

ANSWER: CANCER DEVELOPMENT

EXPLANATION:

Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are genes that regulates the cell cycle of a cell (i.e the cell division and replication). In other words, TSGs encodes protein that act as control or regulator of cell growth.

However, when there is an alteration in the genetic sequence (mutation) of the TSGs, this make the cell not to respond to cues that had been regulating it growth.

Thus, when cell growth is not regulated, it results to runaway or abnormal cell growth (i.e multiple folds cell division and replication), in other word referred to as “cancer”.
