In genetics, two similar alleles for a trait is known as homozygous. Two alleles that differ from one another is known as heterozygous.

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
Organism possessing two identical genes for a trait is said to be?
An organism that has two different alleles of the same gene is a heterozygous organism. Due to the various effects of different alleles, an organism's traits do not reveal its genetic composition.
Terms that describe two alleles of the same gene?
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 improve this answer.
A trait controlled by four alleles is said to have?
A trait controlled by four alleles is said to have multiple alleles.
What is two dominant alleles called?
In eyes, it would be brown is dominant, and blue is recessive. Free earlobe allele is said to be dominant over the attached earlobe allele. When an organism has two dominant alleles for a trait, it is called homozygous dominant. Two recessive alleles for a trait is homozygous recessive.

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.

What are organisms that have two different alleles?
When you have two identical alleles you are said to be homozygous for that particular trait. If the trait is dominant, then you are homozygous dominant. If the trait is recessive, then you are homozygous recessive.
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 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
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.
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.
