Answer: Just did the lesson on this, the answer is C.

Explanation:An allele is one of the possible forms of a gene. Most genes have two alleles, a dominant allele and a recessive allele. If an organism is heterozygous for that trait, or possesses one of each allele, then the dominant trait is expressed ... So a gene is a particular region of your DNA that controls a specific trait.
