i'm not sure where this question is going.

But if the child has recessive trait, the genotype and phenotype of the parents of the child must be both HOMOZYGOUS for the recessive allele and have the trait. If one of them has one dominant trait, the child wouldn't have all recessive trait

hope this helps
