Answer:

An individual whose genotype is heterozygous cannot be for the recessive

Explanation:There are two possible genotypes either homozygous dominant or heterozygous dominant. For a charecter there can be two gene .One is recessive and other one is dominant. In presence of the dominant gene the recessive gene of the same character cannot express . IF recessive gene is homozygous then only it will express .Therefore for the individual it is heterozygous for the dominant
