Best Answer

A heterozygote will show both phenotypes. For example, a tortoiseshell colored cat is heterozygous for black and orange coat color and it has both black and orange hairs in its coat. Refer to the following link for an illustration:

True.


What is codominant genotype?

When two alleles are codominant, that means that they are expressed simultaneously in different parts. For example, if a red and white flower were crossed, and the resulting flower had some red petals and some white petals that would be codominance. Another example is when animals have stripes and spots. Not to be confused in incomplete dominance, which is when two alleles are expressed simultaneously in the same part of the organism (in the flower example all the petals would be pink).

Define the terms homozygote and heterozygote?

Homozygote: (genetics) an organism having two identical alleles of a particular gene and so breeding true for the particular characteristic. Heterozygote:(genetics) an organism having two different alleles of a particular gene and so giving rise to varying offspring.

A heterozygote. An organism with the same alleles at a locus is called a "homozygot".


Traits produced by two or more genes are codominant?

yes but the mans genes are shown more in the child is that your question cause i might be totaly wrong. ---- Genes from each parent show equally and codominant alleles produces a interleaved pattern rather than a blended pattern like incomplete dominance genes.

homozygous dominant or recessive depending on what gene it is


What is the difference between homozygote-and-heterozygote?

The difference between the two is that a homozygote is an organism that has two identical genes at the same place on two corresponding chromosomes and a heterozygote desribes a cell or orangism that has two or more different versions of alleles of at least one of its genes


An organism that has two diffrent alleles for a 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.
