PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Dominant alleles are represented by capital letters and recessive alleles are represented by lowercase letters. For example, blue eyes are a recessive trait and brown eyes are a dominant trait.

Detailed explanation-2: -Genotype refers to an organisms genetic makeup, or genes. It is coded in DNA, and is often represented by two alleles (two letters, like AA or Aa). The combination of alleles (whether two dominant, two recessive, or one of each) is the genotype of an individual in reference to a particular characteristic.

Detailed explanation-3: -A dominant allele will mask a recessive allele, if present. A dominant allele is denoted by a capital letter (A versus a).

Detailed explanation-4: -A capital letter represents the dominant form of a gene (allele), and a lowercase letter is the abbreviation for the recessive form of the gene (allele). phenotype = the physical appearance of a trait in an organism.
