Question

In a trait showing complete dominance, this allele is the allele that is NOT expressed in the heterozygous individual:

A) Dominant allele
B) Recessive allele
C) Co-dominant allele
D) Incomplete dominant allele

Answer 1

In complete dominance, the recessive allele is not expressed in a heterozygous individual, while the dominant allele is expressed.A dominant allele

Step-by-step explanation:

In a trait showing complete dominance, the allele that is NOT expressed in the heterozygous individual is the B) Recessive allele. A dominant allele will mask the presence of a recessive allele in the phenotype of the heterozygous genotype, so the recessive trait only appears when an individual is homozygous recessive (when they have two copies of the recessive allele).
