Answer:

Traits that are dominant mask traits that are recessive.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use a Punnett Square, you can see that dominant traits live up to their name. They dominate over the recessive traits, meaning the offspring will show dominant traits even if one of their parents has recessive traits.
