Capital letters ("E") represent ​ ​ (a)   alleles.

• dominant

• recessive

• anything you want

Answer explanation

Capital letters, like 'E', denote dominant alleles in genetics. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles, which are represented by lowercase letters. Therefore, the correct answer is 'dominant'.

In pea plants, the tall allele is dominant to the short allele. What key would demonstrate this?

• Tall = T Short = S

• Tall = T Short = t

• Tall = t Short = T

• Tall = TT Short = tt
