What do you call is the stronger gene represented by a capital letter?

Dominant gene. The gene represented by a lower case letter is called the Recessive gene.


Meter is represented by a lowercase what?

When measuring distance, meters are represented by a lowercase m.


What allele covers up or dominates the other trait?

The dominant allele covers up or masks the expression of the recessive allele in a heterozygous individual. The dominant allele is typically represented by an uppercase letter, while the recessive allele is represented by a lowercase letter.


A recessive allele is represented by an letter?

In genetics, a recessive allele is typically represented by a lowercase letter. For example, if the dominant allele is represented by "A", the recessive allele for the same trait would be represented by "a".


A person with a heterozygous gene?

A person with a heterozygous gene has one dominant allele, usually represented by a capital letter, and a recessive allele, which is usually represented with a lowercase letter. So an example of a heterozygous gene would be Rr


When gene pairs are written the dominant allele has an?

Capital letter (recessive is lowercase)


What are the letters for alleles?

You decide that. All you have to do is define them before you start. The dominant gene is denoted by a capital letter, the recessive one by a lower case letter. It is better to pick a letter which has different forms for the capital and lower case letters (like A and a; not S and s).


What is represented by a pair of lowercase letter such as tt in a punnett square?

a pair of recessive genes


What is the copy of a gene?

When a gene may be represented by the capital letter N, the gene pair is 2N.


What is the symbol for heterozyous?

The symbol for a heterozygous individual is typically represented by two different letters, with one uppercase and one lowercase letter, e.g., Aa. This denotes that the individual has two different alleles for a particular gene.


What is recessive gene and dominant gene?

A dominant gene is always expressed if present, and the recessive gene is only expressed with the homozygous recessive genotype. For example, if the dominant gene is red (represented by the letter R) and the recessive gene is white (represented by the letter r), then a homozygous dominant organism's genotype will be RR, and its phenotype will be red. If the organism is homozygous recessive, then the genotype will be rr and the phenotype will be white. If the organism is heterozygous, then the genotype will be Rr, and the organism will be red.


True or false dominant traits are represented by a lower case letter and recessive traits are represented by an upper case letter?

False. Dominant traits are typically represented by uppercase letters while recessive traits are represented by lowercase letters.
