Genetic Mutation: Rinnegan since it requires EMS + Senju/Ashura DNA to force its mutation.

Dormant genetic Trait: Sharingan requires special conditions to unlock in a uchiha

Dominant Genetic trait: Byakugan - All PURE Hyuuga have it.

How can the source gene (Here been the Rinnegan) be a mutation? The Sharingan is the actual mutation.

Rinnegan isn't the source though... the Rinne-sharingan is the source

You are right there.

If you remove Hamura's chakra from the Rinnesharigan then the Rinnegan will appear.

I did not mention it because you were using the Indra - Ashura context. In the Indra - Ashura context, the Rinnegan is the source gene, the Sharingan is a mutation.

I'm referring to the unlocking perspective only.

Sharingan is a dormant genetic trait that is unlocked by an uchiha.
Rinnegan is the Sharingan gene mutated once its changed by introducing Senju/Ashura DNA.

Uchiha don't have Rinnegan genes in their systems otherwise a Sharingan can naturally evolve into a Rinnegan without an outside gene being introduced. . What happens is the Sharingan mutates into a Rinnegan meaning the genes / sprouts that produce the Sharingan mutate to create the rinnegan

@Bold: What gave you that idea?

Hagormo + Hamura = Juubi's power which is represented by the Rinnesharingan.

If you are talking about the unlocking perspective it's still the same. The Ashura gene and the Indra gene come together and form a complete whole which is the Rinnegan. So here the mutation is going back to it's original state.

The Sharingan does not mutate into the Rinnegan because it is going back to it's original form.
The Rinnegan however mutates into the Sharingan when the Ashura gene is removed causing a degradation.

This is incorrect since the rinne sharingan doesn't originate from the Byakugan rather the Tree. Hamura's chakra has no bearing on it's existence.

OT: The Sharingan isn't the mutation if anything it's the primal form. The Rinnegan is the complete form of that once all the parts are brought together(rokudo chakra), and the Rinne Sharingan's awakening requires the mezo and the 9 tailed beasts chakra. Hogaromo would've inherited the Sharingan part to pass on the genes, and the fact that Sasuke has a tomoe Rinnegan means he was given rokudo Yin chakra(maintain sharingan yet gain Rinnegan).

You could say that Hogaromo is the human expression of the Jyubi without it's chakra with which he would have had the Rinne sharingan. Kaguya likely kept that chakra restricted to herself and was forced to pass on what she couldn't restrict.

As for the awakening of the Sharingan it's dormant because the gland that excreted the chakra is dormant. It's like a hormone unless there's a trigger it won't manifest itself and do the work. That doesn't affect it's dominance in the slightest.

No, that’s not true. The Juubi doesn’t have any of Hamura’s chakra, so you can’t say, “taking away Hamura’s chakra from the rinnesharingan would turn it into a Rinnegan.”

Hamura’s chakra is a mutated mix composed mostly of Kaguya’s chakra and a bit of the Juubi’s. As opposed to Hagoromo, whom is composed of most of the Juubi’s chakra and a bit of Kaguya’s -hence, his doujutsu and the doujutsu of his descendants. And again, Hagoromo’s chakra is also a mutation.

Kakashi said it was a random mutation.

There's nothing random about it.

Mutation: Rinnegan - It requires the merging chakra of Ashura and Indra to bringing about the Sage of Six Path's chakra.

Atavism (is a modification of a biological structure whereby an ancestral trait reappears after having been lost through evolutionary change in previous generations): Sharingan - Descendants of Indra. It appears in selective members of the Uchiha Clan.

Dominate Gene: Byakugan - inherited from Kaguya's Ootsutsuki.

Rinnegan is a mutation, as it originated from the Rinne Sharingan. So, he isn't wrong. Mellanoma is right on this one.

If we actually go to it, the RinneSharingan is also a mutation since it comes from the chakra fruit.
