Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the heterozygous condition, there are two different alleles present. If one allele is dominant, it will be expressed, and if the other allele is recessive, it will not be expressed in the phenotype. Therefore, an allele that is not expressed in the heterozygous condition is said to be recessive.
