Solution

The correct option is A Dominant
The trait that is always expressed and masks the effect of other traits is called a dominant trait. They are expressed in both homozygous as well as heterozygous conditions.
For example, T is for tall and t is for dwarf. If T is dominant to t, TT will be tall and Tt will also be tall.
So, the correct answer is option A.
