why don't recessive genes die out instantly?
if they have a low chance of passing on how are there so many large populations with recessive genes?
(also holy shit the amount of schizo posting i thought this was /x//)

1st question you should ask yourself.
What is the gnome?
2nd question you should do is look up the definition of recessive gene
Hmmm
From the infographic on the left we can infer that the genetic information is not lost just not expressed.
Look in the mirror before calling someone a schizo

They have the exact same chance as dominant genes to be passed on. They merely have a lower chance to be expressed. Unless, of course, the recessive gene is ubiquitous in a population, in which case it behaves exactly like a dominant gene.
