Answer:

The dominant gene is the one capable of expressing itself even in heterozygous conditions, while the recessive gene can only be expressed in homozygous conditions.

Explanation:

  • A gene has two alleles. A dominant and a recessive.
  • A dominant gene requires only one allele to be expressed in the phenotype of the offspring whereas the recessive gene requires two alleles to be expressed in the phenotype.
  • In simpler words, the dominant gene is the one capable of expressing itself even in heterozygous conditions, while the recessive gene can only be expressed in homozygous conditions.
  • For eg, In garden peas, the yellow colour is dominant and the green colour is recessive.
