Summary Introduction
To summarize:
Three possible genotypes and their corresponding
Introduction:
There are two alleles for each trait. These alleles may be dominant or recessive depending on whether they are expressed or hidden in the trait. Dominant allele is designated by an upper case letter while recessive allele is designated by a lower case letter. For each trait we inherit one allele from each parent.
