Recessive is less occuring than dominant (rare gene)

dominant allele (or gene) is the gene that normally ocurrs

A recessive allele - is hidden when ever the dominant allele is present.

A dominant allele - is one whose trait always shows up in the organism when the allele is present.

They are basically the opposite.
