It’s weird to have spent almost 12 years on Reddit to come to Lemmy and see all of these old memes. On one hand it’s a nice little throwback I can chuckle at. On the other hand it’s a little concerning that for the next 11+ years, I’m going to have to start this meme trip again from the beginning.
Please god, let us skip the rage comics this time
Nope, they have returned. Introducing wojaks
He’s not wrong though.
Context is king.
I’m not sure there’s enough context to know what the answer they were looking for is. Subordinate maybe?
Becides, dominant and submissive are valid in more contexts than sexual relations.
Seems the best, most accurate general answer really.
In the context of biology class I’m confident they wanted ‘recessive’.
My guess is ‘recessive’, in the context of dominant and recessive genes. The only time I can remember ‘dominant’ from when I took biology.
That’s probably what they were looking for.
In that context, I might argue the actual opposite would be non-coding DNA. As both dominant and recessive are still functional DNA, they’re not so much opposites as they are alternatives.
But I’ve made those kinds of arguments in school enough, to know the teacher still probably wouldn’t accept my debating semantics. Even if they admit I’m right.
Yeah i did that a fair bit in school until i realised that everyone doesnt literally mean everything they say.
So the reason people get snippy is that they think you know what they meant but are nitpicking to be disruptive, since everyone should have understood what was meant, to their minds.
