Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Recessive alleles are denoted by a lowercase letter (a versus A). Only individuals with an aa genotype will express a recessive trait; therefore, offspring must receive one recessive allele from each parent to exhibit a recessive trait.
Detailed explanation-2: -A recessive trait definition is one that is only expressed when an organism has two recessive alleles for that trait. A trait is an observable characteristic. This includes things like hair color, blood type, and behaviors. A dominant trait will be expressed with one or two dominant alleles.
