The trait that is always expressed is known as the dominant trait. This means that even if an individual carries just one allele for this trait, it will manifest in their phenotype. Think of it like a loud singer at a karaoke night; they overshadow anyone who tries to sing quietly in the background! In genetics, dominant traits can often be easily identified through pedigrees or family trees, as they tend to show up more frequently in successive generations. For example, if one parent has a dominant trait, there’s a higher chance that their offspring will express that trait, making it easy for researchers and hobbyists alike to trace lineage and inheritance patterns.
