In genetics, if an organism has one dominant allele (A) and one recessive allele (a) for a trait, what will be the observable characteristic, assuming complete dominance?

A The characteristic associated with the recessive allele.
B The characteristic associated with the dominant allele.
C A blend of both dominant and recessive characteristics.
D Neither characteristic will be expressed.

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

In complete dominance, the dominant allele masks the expression of the recessive allele. Therefore, the observable characteristic (phenotype) will be determined by the dominant allele.
