Every sex cell has one allele for each trait. after meiosis, pairs of chromosomes separate and alleles for each trait also separate into different sex cells.
Genotypes consist of two alleles for every trait. You inherit one allele from one parent, and another from the other parent.
One allele from each parent. Ex.
Mother has AA father has aa
Offspring can inherit either letter from combination, so the offspring could be Aa
There are two alleles that are possibly for each trait. Each of the parents will give one allele. This is what makes up the genotype which is a combination of inherited alleles.
there are 2 alleles for each trait
10 alleles make a trait

each sperm cell could either have the dominant or the recessive allele for that trait
Most cells in your bodies have alleles for every trait. Some are dominant while others are in dominant alleles. Albinism is an example of a dominant allele.
For each trait, a gamete has one allele. It is haploid.
Each reproductive cell (gamete) is 1N (the haploid chromosome count) which means it has a single allele for a genetic trait at each gene locus...this is based on the assumption that the trait is controlled at a single site. Polygenic traits, those controlled or modified at more than one locus, will have multiple alleles for a trait.

When you have two identical alleles you are said to be homozygous for that particular trait. If the trait is dominant, then you are homozygous dominant. If the trait is recessive, then you are homozygous recessive.
Yes, that is correct. Each trait is controlled by genes, and genes exist in different forms called alleles. For any given trait, an individual can have two allelesβone inherited from their mother and one from their father. These alleles can have different variations, resulting in different expression of the trait.

Is called a heterozygote (hetero- meaning different, and zygote being the sex cell). Heterozygotes have two different alleles of a particular gene, one in each of their sets of chromosomes. As apposed to homozygotes which have two of the same alleles of a gene.
Each reproductive cell (gamete) is 1N (the haploid chromosome count) which means it has a single allele for a genetic trait at each gene locus...this is based on the assumption that the trait is controlled at a single site. Polygenic traits, those controlled or modified at more than one locus, will have multiple alleles for a trait.
The answer is: hybrids
