A dominant gene is a gene that is more likely to be shown through the offspring. A recessive gene is the gene,that when compared to the dominant, is less like likely to appear in an offspring.
Example: A couple decide to have a child. The father is tall in height (TT) and the mother is not (tt). This means that the domimant trait would be having the height be tall while the recessive would not.
