what is a dominant allele?

Question 6 options:

an allele that can never be expressed


an allele that is only expressed when no dominant allele is present


an allele that is acquired after birth


an allele that is always expressed when the allele is present

Respuesta :

an allele that is always expressed when the allele is present

Answer:

1. Dominance (complete dominance) would be a case in which 1 allele is always dominant over the other(s).

Example: we could see this clearly when breeding to homozygous dominant organisms (offspring are always dominant).

Conclusion:

Option 4 (d) is correct.
