A dominant allele is a version of a gene that is expressed when present, masking the effects of a recessive allele when both are present in an individual. It is represented by a capital letter in genetics notation, such as "A" for a dominant allele and "a" for a recessive allele.
The recessive pod color is green and the symbol appears to be a pea pod.
A capital letter in genetics typically represents the dominant allele of a gene. This means that the trait associated with that allele will be expressed in an individual, even if they have only one copy of the dominant allele. Lowercase letters are used to represent recessive alleles, which will only be expressed if an individual has two copies of the recessive allele.
In genetics, a recessive allele is typically represented by a lowercase letter. For example, if the dominant allele is represented by "A", the recessive allele for the same trait would be represented by "a".
An allele that is masked by the dominant allele is called a recessive allele. When an individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele, only the trait determined by the dominant allele will be expressed. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual has two copies of it (homozygous recessive).

A dominant allele is a version of a gene that is expressed when present, masking the effects of a recessive allele when both are present in an individual. It is represented by a capital letter in genetics notation, such as "A" for a dominant allele and "a" for a recessive allele.
The recessive pod color is green and the symbol appears to be a pea pod.
A gene marked with a small letter typically represents a recessive allele for a particular trait. This means the trait will only be expressed if an individual has two copies of this recessive allele in their genetic makeup.

normally, the dominant allele is expressed as a capital letter and the recessive allele is expressed as a lowercase letter, if that's what you mean!
In genetics, a recessive allele is typically represented by a lowercase letter. For example, if the dominant allele is represented by "A", the recessive allele for the same trait would be represented by "a".
An allele that is masked by the dominant allele is called a recessive allele. When an individual has one dominant allele and one recessive allele, only the trait determined by the dominant allele will be expressed. The recessive allele will only be expressed if an individual has two copies of it (homozygous recessive).
Dominant alleles are written in upper case (i.e, 'A'), while recessive alleles are lower case (i.e, 'a')
The genotype ff represents a homozygous recessive individual for a specific gene. This means that both alleles for the gene are the same and both are the recessive allele (f). This individual will exhibit the trait associated with the recessive allele.
A small letter stands for a recessive allele.
An example of a heterozygous recessive genotype is when an individual carries one dominant allele and one recessive allele for a particular trait. One example could be a person with the genotype Aa, where "A" represents the dominant allele and "a" represents the recessive allele.
