In regards to genetics ____ what is the principle of dominance?
|
|
larger zebras will out compete their smaller counterparts for food
|
|
|
recessive alleles will “beat out” the dominant allele 75% of the time
|
|
|
some genes are almost always inherited together
|
|
|
some alleles are dominant and others are recessive
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Law of dominance: Some alleles are dominant while others are recessive; an organism with at least one dominant allele will display the effect of the dominant allele.
Detailed explanation-2: -The two alleles for a gene don’t need to be the same. The instructions you get from your mom can be a little different from the instructions you get from your dad. And these different instructions–or alleles–will end up making slightly different proteins. This is where dominant and recessive come from.
