An allele whose trait always shows up in the organism when the allele is present.

• Dominant allele

• Recessive allele

An allele that is masked/hidden when a dominant allele is present.

• Dominant allele

• Recessive allele

A chart that shows all the possible combinations of alleles that can result from a genetic cross.
