    In diploid organisms, which statement correctly describes the relationship between dominant and recessive alleles of a single gene?

    • A) Recessive alleles physically destroy or modify dominant alleles so they cannot produce functional proteins.
    • B) Dominant alleles determine the phenotype in heterozygous individuals, masking the expression of recessive alleles.
