The alleles found in haploid organisms cannot be dominant or recessive. Why? a. most haploid individuals are bacteria, and bacterial genetics is completely different from eukaryotic genetics b. dominance and recessiveness describe interactions between two alleles of the same gene in the same individual c. alleles in haploid individuals are transmitted like mitochondrial DNA or chloroplast DNA d. because only one allele is present, alleles in haploid organisms are always dominant
