Question

Recessive genes are _____.

Answer 1

Answer:

1) represented by a lower case letter
2) always masked by dominant genes

3) only expressed in the absence of a dominant gene

Explanation:

So if I take a black and a yellow marker- and tried drawing the yellow over the black- or the other way around- you'd still only see the black marker. The recessive trait is like the yellow marker. Now if I drew the yellow marker with another yellow marker you would see the yellow. I hope this helps!
