Recessive inheritance occurs only when a person receives two __________ alleles, one from each
Charra [1.4K]
Recessive alleles. Recessive alleles are only expressed phenotypically when the offspring receive recessive genes from each parent. In other words they are only expressed phenotypically when they occur in pairs. In the presence of dominant gene they are never expressed phenotypically and the offsprings with both the recessive and dominant genes occurring concurrently are referred to as carriers.
