Dominant and Recessive Gene:

dominate and recessive gene

 Considerate the mechanisms of dominant and recessive genes are related to inheritance. The dominant gene is a significant gene will show its characteristics, which can be recessive gene hidden that cannot establish proper characteristics.

Dominant Gene:

The dominant gene carries the most energetic characteristic and will show as compare the recessive gene are hidden or weaker. A commonly used example is the inheritance of eye color.  If a person carries both genes for brown eyes (labeled as capital B), they will show brown eyes. However, if a person has one gene for brown eyes and one gene for blue eyes (labeled as small b), the dominant gene (brown eyes) will show its effect, and the person will still have brown eyes.

• Dominant (BB) and Recessive gene (bb).

Recessive Gene:

The recessive gene is relatively weaker and may not show its effect if paired with the dominant gene. Its characteristic is stored inside the nucleus, where it remains hidden. The character will be visible only if an individual carries both genes for the recessive traits.

List of Dominant Gene:

Eye color: Brown eyes

Handedness: Right-handed (dominant)

Hair type: Curly hair

Hair color: Black Hair

Height: Tall

Earlobes: Free earlobes

Tongue rolling: Can roll the tongue

Skin pigmentation: Dark skin

Dimples: Has dimples

Color vision: Normal color vision

List of Recessive Gene:

Color blindness, no dimples, light skin, while albinism is a recessive trait, cannot roll the tongue, attached earlobes, short height, brown hair, straight hair, blue eyes and left-handed these are the example of recessive gene.

Remembering which gene is dominant and recessive is essential in understanding the inheritance of traits. For example, knowing that brown eyes are dominant and blue eyes are recessive, we can predict that two person with brown eyes (genotype BB) can have a child with either dominant brown eyes (genotype BB) or heterozygous brown eyes (genotype Bb).

In conclusion, dominant genes are the stronger of the two genes and will always show their effect from generation to generation. Recessive genes are weaker or hidden genes and only show their product if paired with another recessive gene. Consideration of the dominant and recessive genes is crucial in predicting how traits are inherited and passed down through generations.
