What organism with two unlike genes of a trait is called?
A heterozygous has 2 different alleles for a trait.
What is a homozygous dominant offspring are?
Offspring that posses two different forms of the same gene. These are called alleles.
When a pair of chromosomes contains different alleles for a trait that trait is called a what when a trait has two identical alleles it is called?
2 different alelles - heterozygous Same alelles - homozygous
What is it called when an organism has genes that are different for a trait?
Well every gene in the human genome codes for something different. The fact that variety exists is determined by the alleles of that gene. The human genome has over 35,000 genes that all work together to form a persons genotype. Observable features are an organisms phenotype and those are composed of different traits, i.e. eye color, hair color, certain behaviors. All of these are also coded for by specific genes.
What is heterogenous in genes?
when an organism has 2 different alleles for a trait an allele is a specific gene examples: Blond hair, Blue eyes, Big feet
What is an organism with 2 alleles for 1 trait that are different?
The answer to your question, "What is an organism with 2 of the same alleles for a trait called?" is homozygous. it is just homozygous-By SciienceFreak

What is a homozygous dominant offspring are?
Offspring that posses two different forms of the same gene. These are called alleles.
Is heterozygous individual?
Hi I'm 12 .A heterozygous organism is one with 2 different alleles for one trait
What is individual heterozygous?
Hi I'm 12 .A heterozygous organism is one with 2 different alleles for one trait
What happens when an organism shows more than 2 alleles?
Then the organism is deformed

When both dominant and recessive alleles are present within a single nucleus the organism is for the trait?
You are supposed to have 2 alleles in a single nucleus and if not there can be a disorder i believe.
What alleles would a homozygous recessive organism have?
2 lowercase letters Ex. cc or tt or AA
