Can An Individual To Carry The Dominant Gene And Express The Recessive Trait?
No. In this situation they are a carrier for the recessive trait, that is why the allele is called recessive because the dominant allele inherited with it dominates the phenotype of that trait in the individual. To show, in your phenotype, a recessive trait, you will be pure breeding for that trait, meaning having two recessive copies in your genotype, which is called being homozygous recessive, for that trait! In other words you have no dominant allele for that trait.
