Answer:

A recessive trait is a trait that is expressed when an organism has two recessive alleles, or forms of a gene. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles, so a recessive trait is only expressed when an organism has two recessive alleles for a gene.

Recessive is a quality found in the relationship between two versions of a gene. individuals receive one version of a gene called an allele, from each parent. if the alleles are different, the dominant allele will be expressed while the effect of the other allele called recessive, is masked.
