In dominated inherited disorder only one dominant allele presence is enough to develop disorder while in recessive inherited disorder two recessive allele are needed to develop disease.

For eg huntington diseases is a autosomal dominant disorder.

Let allele A responsible for huntington diseases so person with genotype AA, and Aa are both diseased while aa is diseased.

Sickle cell anaemia is autosomal recessive disorder. Let Hbs allele is responsible for sickle cell anaemia so person with HbsHbs is disesed while HbAHbA and HbAHbs are normal.
