                    A gene is said to be dominant if:                                                                                                                              

    A)                 it expresses it?s effect only in homozygous stage

    B)                 it expresses only in heterozygous condition

    C)                 it expresses in both homozygous  and heterozygous conditions

    D)                 it is never expressed in any condition

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    A dominant gene would lead to the expression of its phenotype irrespective of the fact whether its allelic gene is dominant or recessive.                 e.g., R gene which is responsible for red colour, is dominant over r gene which is responsible for white colour. Then R will express itself in homozygous i. e., RR as well as in heterozygous i. e., Rr conditions.
