If by gene pair, you mean the two copies of each gene present in a diploid cell, then yes.
Both alleles make up an organisms genotype, though they might not both be expressed in the phenotype, if one is recessive for instance.

A homozygous genotype where both alleles are recessive are called?
A recessive gene refers to an allele which is only seen in homozygous genotype.
What do geneticists call alleles that are both expressed in the phenotype when they are together?
Genetic makeup formed from both inherited alleles together is called a genotype. Homozygous alleles would be a pair of identical alleles for a single trait. Heterozygous is different alleles for a single trait.
What is the alternate form of a gene called?
Alleles are alternative forms of genes.
Is combinations of alleles known as a genotype?
False. A combination af alleles is called a gene. The genotype is the type of gene (I.e blue eyes rather than brown eyes)
What do we call a description of an individuals alleles for a paticular gene?
That depends on the gene: some genes have only a few alleles, some genes have hundreds or even thousands of alleles.

What an organsim genotype?
And Organism's genotype is the organism's specific combination of alleles in a any given gene.
What type of alleles are presented in a homozygous genotype?
homozygous(different gene)-Rr heterozygous(same gene)-RR,rr

Different forms of gene?
Alleles are the different types of genes.
Which of the following best describes a person's genotype?
The alleles that a person has The genes that a person has
How do you distinguish between genotype and phenotype heterozygous and homozygous and dominant and recessive?
Genotype is the organism's full heredity information that may or may not be expressed. Actual observed properties are the phenotype. The phenotype is dependent on the genotype. Genes are homozygous when the same allele (form of the gene) inherited from both parents is the same. When different forms of the same gene are inherited from parents, they are heterozygous. Dominance refers to the relation between alleles of a gene. When two alleles of a gene combine, the dominant one then determines the trait that is expressed. In order for a recessive trait to be expressed, both alleles need to be recessive.
When neither gene in a genotype pair is dominant and neither gene is recessive the genes are said to be .?
Incomplete dominant alleles.
How are gene and alleles related to genotype and phenotype?
They are related to each other because...Genes and alleles are the traits inside an object, when using a punnet square, we take the genotype out of that object to make experiments.
