How are alleles described?
Can you explain what dominant and recessive alleles are?
Dominant alleles are expressed when they are present in an individual's genetic makeup. Recessive alleles are only expressed when two copies of the recessive gene are present. For example, if an individual inherits one dominant allele for brown eyes and one recessive allele for blue eyes, they will have brown eyes because the dominant allele is expressed.
