What term defines alleles that are different?
Heterozygous
What is the scientific name for the words same and different?
The scientific prefix for same is homo- and the prefix for different is hetero-, as in homozygous and heterozygous.
What is a plant with two dominant or two recessive alleles said to be?
Heterozygous alleles are used to describe the 'parents' when creating a test cross chart. When completing a test cross there is more than comparing alleles, you are really comparing genetics. Heterozygous YY or yy versus Homozygous Yy, is just the first to consider.
What is a Genotype in which both alleles are the same?
Homologous ~ hello homo meaning one....Dur opposite of heterozygous
Which term means the state of having two different alleles for the same trait?
Two different alleles for the same trait are heterozygous. No, Its homozygous. This answer is incorrect as homo = same.
What term defines alleles that are different?
Heterozygous
Is x and y hetero zygote or homo zygote?
The words homozygous and heterozygous don't apply to the chromosomes that you have but instead refer to the differing alleles (versions) of a gene you have. For example if you have a brown hair allele and a blond hair allele, you are said to be heterozygous for the hair colour gene. If you have two of the same allele you are said to be homozygous. As such one person will heterozygous for some of the thousands of human genes and homozygous for others. If you are XY it means you are male, and XX means you are female.
What is the scientific name for the words same and different?
The scientific prefix for same is homo- and the prefix for different is hetero-, as in homozygous and heterozygous.
What are hetrozgous?
What is heterozygous? Your inherited characteristics are determined by your genes. Zygosity refers to the similarity of genes for a trait in an organism. If both genes are different, the organism is heterozygous (hetero = different) for that trait. If both genes are the same, the organism is homozyous (homo = same).
What is Having two unlike genes for the same trait?
When two alleles differ from each other, such as Tt, it is called heterozygous, hetero meaning different. When alleles are the same (TT) it is called homozygous, homo meaning same.
What are the letters for heterozygous?
Actually, there aren't specific letters. The letters depend on the alleles. For example, if the alleles are A and a, then Aa would be heterozygous, since hetero means different. Homozygous, however, would be two of the same alleles, since homo means same. The homozygous would be AA or AA in this example. hope this helped!
What is a organism with one dominant and one recessive version of a trait called?
The organism is heterozygous as opposed to homozygous. Hetero comes from greek origin meaning different as opposed to homo which means same.
What is a plant with two dominant or two recessive alleles said to be?
Heterozygous alleles are used to describe the 'parents' when creating a test cross chart. When completing a test cross there is more than comparing alleles, you are really comparing genetics. Heterozygous YY or yy versus Homozygous Yy, is just the first to consider.
Is the genotypeAA a homozygous dominant or heterzygous dominant?
The two AA genes are the same uppercase letter, so they are homozygous. 'Homo' means 'same'. If the genotype was Aa, it would be heterozygous, because 'hetero' means 'different'.
What is a Genotype in which both alleles are the same?
Homologous ~ hello homo meaning one....Dur opposite of heterozygous
Which term means the state of having two different alleles for the same trait?
Two different alleles for the same trait are heterozygous. No, Its homozygous. This answer is incorrect as homo = same.
If the father has type A blood and mother type O and they have childred with type A are they Diploid haploid Heterozygous or Homozygous?
all type A children born in this condition are A heterozygous . there is two possibilities with the father genes but both give us the same result, since we don't know the father blood type is hetero or homo : if Father is Hetero : 1- Father(IAi --> A) and Mother(ii --> O), the Children are 50% of the kids will be O 50% of the kids will be A ( hetero) if Father is Homo : 2- Father(IAIA --> A) and Mother(ii --> O), the Children are 100% of the kids will be A ( hetero) so in both cases weither the father is homo or hetero, children will be hetero, because of the mother blood type.
