Detailed explanation-1: -Dominant refers to the relationship between two versions of a gene. Individuals receive two versions of each gene, known as alleles, from each parent. If the alleles of a gene are different, one allele will be expressed; it is the dominant gene. The effect of the other allele, called recessive, is masked.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dominant traits are always expressed when the connected allele is dominant, even if only one copy of the dominant trait exists. Recessive traits are expressed only if both the connected alleles are recessive. If one of the alleles is dominant, then the associated characteristic is less likely to manifest.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is a character expressed by a dominant gene. Dominant gene is the one which expresses itself in the presence of its contrasting which is considered to be a suppressed gene. In simple word, the traits which are expressed more often and observed more commonly in the population is called dominant trait.
Detailed explanation-4: -In contrast to recessively inherited traits, some alleles are dominant. With a dominant trait, an individual will express the associated phenotype even with just one copy of the allele for the trait.
Detailed explanation-5: -For example, the allele for brown eyes is dominant, therefore you only need one copy of the ‘brown eye’ allele to have brown eyes (although, with two copies you will still have brown eyes).
