<P> Mendelian traits in humans concerns how , in Mendelian inheritance , a child receiving a dominant allele from either parent will have the dominant form of the phenotypic trait or characteristic . Only those that received the recessive allele from both parents , known as zygosity , will have the recessive phenotype . Those that receive a dominant allele from one parent and a recessive allele from the other parent will have the dominant form of the trait . Purely Mendelian traits are a tiny minority of all traits , since most phenotypic traits exhibit incomplete dominance , codominance , and contributions from many genes . </P>
