(In genetic terms, a dominant trait is one that is phenotypically expressed in heterozygotes). A dominant trait is opposed to a recessive trait which is expressed only when two copies of the gene are present. (In genetic terms, a recessive trait is one that is phenotypically expressed only in homozygotes).
What does it mean to be phenotypically dominant?
The genes that are expressed are responsible for your traits, or phenotype. A dominant phenotype is a trait resulting from a dominant gene.
Can you be heterozygous dominant?
If the alleles are heterozygous dominant, the faulty allele would be dominant. In such a case, the person may or may not be affected (compared to homozygous dominance where the person would be affected).
