The correct response is:
No, dominant traits only show up if they are inherited; how common they are is not influenced by this.
This statement highlights the fact that dominance does not correlate with the frequency of a trait in a population. Dominant alleles can be less common than recessive alleles, and their prevalence depends on various factors, including inheritance patterns, natural selection, and genetic drift, rather than simply being labeled as "dominant."
