People who have the sickle cell trait have the genotype HbAS, which is a combination of the dominant allele HbA and the recessive allele HbS. As a result, their red blood cells have a sickle shape because both alleles are expressed in the phenotype. For this observation, what is the name of the genetic phenomenon?
