How is it possible for an offspring show a trait that is not displayed in either of its parents?
When both parents are homozygous recessive and showing the recessive trait, their offspring will get the dominant gene. This will allow the offspring to show the dominant trait.
The genes have been modified from parent to offspring
When both parents are heterozygous and showing the dominant trait, it is possible for both parents to pass on the recessive gene to their offspring. This will allow the offspring to show the recessive trait.
