Question

Differentiate between the following:
(a) Dominance and Recessive
(b) Homozygous and Heterozygous
(c) Monohybrid and Dihybrid.

Answer 1

Dominance	Recessive
A dominant factor or allele expresses itself in the presence or absence of a recessive trait.	A recessive trait is able to express itself only in the absence of a dominant trait.
For example, tall plant, round seed, violet flower, etc. are dominant characters in a pea plant.	For example, dwarf plant, wrinkled seed, white flower, etc. are recessive traits in a pea plant.
