Dominant vs Recessive Allele

Dominant allele wo hai jo do alag alleles hone par dikhta hai; recessive allele tab tak chhupa rehta hai jab tak wahi ek maatra type na bache.

Dominant allele

Wo allele jiska trait aap heterozygote jaise Tt me dekhte ho. Capital letter me likhte hain. Ye doosre allele ko mask karta hai, par ye stronger ya zyada common nahi, bas wo jo dikhta hai.

Recessive allele

Wo allele jo heterozygote me chhupa rehta hai aur tabhi dikhta hai jab dono copies recessive hon, jaise tt. Small letter me likhte hain. Ye poori tarah kaam karta hai, bas dominant copy hone par outvote ho jaata hai.

Trap yeh hai

Bada trap ye hai ki dominant ka matlab stronger, better ya zyada common samajh lena. In me se kuch nahi. Iska matlab sirf wo jo dono hone par dikhta hai. Bahut se dominant traits rare hote hain, aur bahut se recessive traits common. Test: heterozygote (Tt) dekho, wahaan jo dikhta hai wahi dominant hai.

Ye kahaan jud'ta hai

Yahi chhupe-versus-dikhne waala split wajah hai ki ek recessive trait ek generation skip karke baad me wapas aata hai. Allele kabhi gaya hi nahi tha, sirf masked tha, aur yahi genotype versus phenotype ka dil hai.

Genotype vs phenotype

Ek quick check

Heterozygote (Tt) me jo trait dikhta hai wo kis allele se control hota hai?

  • ARecessive allele
  • BDominant allele
  • CDono barabar
  • DKoi nahi
