Anencephaly is a neural tube defect that is typically considered a sporadic condition caused by multifactorial and environmental factors, rather than being directly linked to a single gene that follows traditional dominant or recessive inheritance patterns.

Is angel man recessive or dominant?
recessive
Is the trait for bleeder's disease dominant or recessive?
Recessive
What is the difference between dominant alleles and recessive alleles?
dominant-appears in first generation recessive-seems to dissapear
What makes a dominant allele different from recessive Allie?
A dominant alle masks the expression of the recessive trait in a heterozygous genotype, a recessive allele is the phenotpye expressed is the recessive trait.
Why are two recessive alleles needed for a recesssive trait to be shown?
Two recessive alleles are needed for a recessive trait to be shown because a recessive trait is only expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive allele (one from each parent). If an individual has one dominant allele, it will mask the expression of the recessive allele, resulting in the dominant trait being displayed.
What can be dominant or recessive?
Alleles can be dominant or recessive
Is melanoma dominant or recessive?
is malignant melanoma dominant or recessive
What is the difference dominant and recessive trait?
Dominant traits are the traits that mask the recessive traits. The dominant traits are stronger than recessive!
Is a situation in which a dominant allele completely masks a recessive allele for a gene.?
If you have 2 dominant alleles, the gene will be dominant, if you have 2 recessive alleles, the gene will be recessive. But if you have 1 recessive and 1 dominant, the Dominant allele will mask the recessive one.
How do you xxplain dominant and recessive?
Recessive
Is AAA recessive or dominant?
recessive
When does a recessive trait dominant over a dominant trait?
A recessive trait cannot be dominant over a dominant trait. Dominant traits are always expressed over recessive traits in heterozygous individuals because they mask the expression of the recessive trait.
Which form of gene pair is expressed when both dominant and recessive are present?
In a situation where both a dominant and recessive allele are present in a gene pair, the dominant allele will be expressed phenotypically. The presence of a dominant allele overrides the expression of the recessive allele.
Is restless leg dominant or recessive?
is restless leg syndrome dominant or recessive
Is arthritis dominant or recessive?
it is dominant
What is dominant recessive?
Dominant and recessive are terms used to describe how a particular allele (gene variant) is expressed in an individual's phenotype. A dominant allele will be expressed even if only one copy is present, while a recessive allele needs two copies to be expressed. Dominant traits mask the expression of recessive traits in an organism.
Can someone give you a List of dominant or recessive personality traits?
1. Shape of face (probably polygenic) Oval dominant, square recessive 2. Cleft in chin No cleft dominant, cleft recessive 3. Hair curl (probably polygenic) Assume incomplete dominance Curly: homozygous Wavy: heterozygous Straight: homozygous 4. Hairline Widow peak dominant, straight hairline recessive 5. Eyebrow size Broad dominant, slender recessive 6. Eyebrow shape Separated dominant, joined recessive 7. Eyelash length Long dominant, short recessive 8. Dimples Dimples dominant, no dimples recessive 9. Earlobes Free lobe dominant, attached recessive 10. Eye shape Almond dominant, round recessive 11. Freckles Freckles dominant, no freckles recessive 12. Tongue rolling Roller dominant, nonroller recessive 13. Tongue folding Inability dominant, ability recessive 14. Finger mid-digital hair Hair dominant, no hair recessive 15. Hitch-hiker's thumb Straight thumb dominant, hitch-hiker thumb recessive 16. Bent little finger Bent dominant, straight recessive 17. Interlaced fingers Left thumb over right dominant, right over left recessive 18. Hair on back of hand Hair dominant, no hair recessive 19. Tendons of Palmar Muscle Two tendons dominant, three tendons recessive
