A trait controlled by four alleles is said to have?
A trait controlled by four alleles is said to have multiple alleles.
Organism that have two identical alleles for a particular trait are said to be?
Organisms that have two identical alleles for a particular trait are said to be? homozygous
When an organism has two identical alleles for a trait it is said to be what?
In genetics, two similar alleles for a trait is known as homozygous. Two alleles that differ from one another is known as heterozygous.
What are genes with three or more alleles called?
this makes no scientific sense. A gene (which determines a phenotypic trait) can only contain 2 alleles. However codominace allows for multiple alleles to be chosen from, but only 2 picked for a gene. Also, if multiple genes determine a phenotypic trait that's polygenic inheritance.
What do you call one gene of a pair for a SPECIFIC trait is called?
Having two different alleles is said to be....?-Heterozygous

What oranism has two different alleles for a trait?
An organism that possesses two different alleles for a trait is said to be heterozygous for that trait.
Organism that have two identical alleles for a particular trait are said to be?
Organisms that have two identical alleles for a particular trait are said to be? homozygous
An organism with two different alleles for a single trait is said to be heterozygous?
A heterozygous is a hybrid of genes. It has a dominant and recessive gene. The dominant gene covers over the recessive trait, making the individual have the dominant trait. (trait are alleles...) or apex ans:two
What Describes an individual that has two alleles for a trait?
It sounds like you are referring to homozygous vs heterozygous. If an organism has two identical alleles of the same gene, it is said to be homozygous. If an organism has two different alleles of the same gene, it is said to be heterozygous.If a homozygous organism has two identical dominantalleles, it is said to be homozygous dominant, while an organism with two identical recessive alleles is said to be homozygous recessive.If this was not what you're asking, please clarify your question on the discussion page so someone can Terms_that_describe_two_alleles_of_the_same_genethis answer.

If two genes in a gene pair are for the same trait what will that trait be?
The question should be "If two alleles for a gene are the same, what phenotype will the organism have?" Answer: If the two alleles are for the dominant phenotype, the organism will exhibit the dominant phenotype. If the two alleles are for the recessive phenotype, the organism will have the recessive phenotype.

What is hmozygous?
A cell is said to be homozygous for a particular gene when identical alleles of the gene are present on both homologous chromosomes. For example, if the alleles are AA or aa the cell is homologous for that trait. It is heterozygous if it is Aa
How many recessive alleles for a trait must an organism inherit in order to show that trait?
Except in rare cases, you can only inherit one allele per parent per trait (for those of you that don't know, that's two alleles). A recessive trait will be shown if both alleles are for said recessive trait. If one of the alleles is for a dominant trait, then the dominant trait will show. Some genes are tied to environment and exposure to certain things, so a trait may be 'masked' for the duration of a person/organism's life, or at least until they are exposed to it. For example, an allergy to plastic would not be apparent in someone living in Africa unless by chance they came into contact with a plastic bucket, plastic hairbrush, etc., from, say, a visiting doctor from America.
