Dominant or recessive? Which will show up as the phenotype?Dd
A
Dominant
B
recessive
C
neither
D
homozygous
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An individual with one dominant and one recessive allele for a gene will have the dominant phenotype. They are generally considered “carriers” of the recessive allele: the recessive allele is there, but the recessive phenotype is not.

Detailed explanation-2: -Remember, we have two copies of most of our genes, one from mom and one from dad. You will have dimples if both copies are D (DD) or if only one is D (Dd). That is the definition of dominant.
