The answer is recessive alleles. Generally, a recessive allele
is the form of a gene that codes for a non-functional protein. When an individual inherits
recessive allele for a gene from both parents, then they are more likely to
suffer a disorder that is attributed to lack of the respective functional protein. Often the heterozygous individual will
not bear the disorder even though they carry
the recessive allele. This is because the
dominant allele is able to mask the
recessive allele by producing a functional
protein.

Answer:
4 possible combinations of gametes
Explanation:
The animal is considered an heterozygotic dihybrid because it involves two genes that have different alleles for both genes. The dihybrid animal undergoes meiosis to produce gametes. According to Mendel in his laws of segregation and independent assortment, the alleles of the two genes separate into gametes independently of one another to produce 4 types of gametes.
Number of possible combinations of gametes formed by an heterozygote can be determined by using 2^n, where n is the number of characters. Number of characters or genes involved in this case is 2, Hence, 2^2 = 4 gametes.
The allelic combination in the four gametes are: AB, Ab, aB, ab.
