not
Dominant phenotype refers to the physical appearance determined by dominant alleles. However, the frequency of a phenotype in a population is not solely determined by whether it is dominant or recessive. It depends on the allele frequencies in the gene pool. For example, in the case of Huntington's disease (caused by a dominant allele), it is much less common than many recessive - trait - related genetic disorders (like cystic fibrosis). So, dominant phenotypes are not always the most commonly seen in a population.
