Respuesta :

The answer is D. Dominance in genetics is an association between alleles of one gene, in which the result on phenotype of one allele covers the influence of a second allele at the similar locus. The initial allele is dominant and the second allele is recessive.

Answer:

D.  

dominant gene.

Explanation:

A gene or allele (an allele is the individual copy obtained from the parent) is a set of instructions used by the body to produce proteins. So, although we talk about genes being dominant or recessive, the reason is actually in the protein. There are numerous reasons why one may be dominant or recessive.
