Reply to comment by Rodeo_Pup in How can you inherit recessive traits only one parent has? by Rodeo_Pup
Not every gene is dom/rec. You don’t get one or the other. If one parent has a recessive, the other may have a recessive also. Therefore, it could be a 50/50 shot of you getting either or. Maybe your siblings all got one recessive and you got another.
