Which of the following statements are false? I. A Dominant allele determines the phenotype when paired with a recessive allele; II. A recessive allele is weaker than a dominant allele; III. A recessive allele do not shows its effects when paired with a dominant allele; IV. A dominant allele is always better for an organism.

Statement III, taken strictly, is also considered false here because a recessive allele
