dominant
recessive
allele
genotype

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In genetics, a dominant trait is represented by a capital letter and is always expressed when present in the genotype (either as a homozygous - dominant \(AA\) or heterozygous \(Aa\) condition). A recessive trait (lower - case letter) is only expressed when in the homozygous - recessive \(aa\) state. An allele is one of the alternative forms of a gene. A genotype is the genetic makeup of an organism (combination of alleles).

Answer:

Dominant
