Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between a dominant allele and a recessive allele of the same gene is that the dominant allele will always be expressed if it is present. This means that if an organism has one or two copies of the dominant allele, it will always be expressed in the organism's phenotype. On the other hand, the recessive allele will only be expressed if the organism has two copies of the recessive allele. In this case, the dominant allele will be masked and the recessive allele will be expressed.
