if you recieve two genes, the recessive trait will?

Question

A-not be seen
b-be seen
c-neither

Answer 1

a- not be seen- if you have received 2 dominant genes
b- be seen- if you have received 2 recessive genes

recessive traits will only be seen, if you have received two recessive genes.

Answer 2

If you receive two copies of the recessive trait, you will observe the recessive trait. If either of those copies is dominant, then you will see the Dominant trait. Phenotype is the observance, genotype is the trait: D = dominant, d = recessive

2D (DD) = dominant
Dd = dominant
dd = recessive


So, I don't understand the wording of the question. I assume the answer is supposed to be A. But if both genes are recessive, it would be B.

(That's assuming the genes follow the principle of Mendelian inheritence. If not, then the answer is C, and your teacher is just mean).

Answer 3

A (unless both genes have the recessive trait)
