For a heterozygote, production of sufficient quantities of the functional protein by the ______ allele compensates for the production of a non-functional protein by the ______ allele.

Respuesta :

For a heterozygote, the production of the protein by the DOMINANT allele compensates for the production of a non-functional protein by the RECESSIVE allele. It is classical genetics.

Alleles and dominance

An allele is a gene variant, diploid individuals inherit two different alleles for a given gene locus.

A homo-zygous individual has the same alleles, whereas a heterozygous individual has two different alleles for a given gene locus.

Dominance occurs when the dominant allele completely masks the expression of the recessive allele.
