Phenotype
The physical trait exhibited by an organism's genes is called the phenotype. (As opposed to the genotype, which refers to the alleles themselves.)
Genes code for all genetic physical traits, so allele combinations code everything from metabolism rate to pigment coloring. Everything from the shape of your fingernails to whether you're more likely to get heart disease is an expression of an allele combination.
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
The genetic makeup, as distinguished from the physical appearance, of an organism or a group of organisms. The combination of alleles located on homologous chromosomes that determines a specific characteristic..
The organism is heterozygous for that allele.
The appearance of an organism, irrespective of its alleles, is referred to as its phenotype. Phenotype is determined by the interaction of an organism's genotype (the specific combination of alleles) with its environment. It includes observable traits such as physical characteristics, behavior, and any other characteristic that can be directly observed or measured.

phenotype
The physical trait exhibited by an organism's genes is called the phenotype. (As opposed to the genotype, which refers to the alleles themselves.)
A heterozygote expresses the traits of both alleles in the phenotypic traits. These traits affect the physical appearance of an organism.
inherited combination of alleles(:genetic makeup
A phenotype is the physical trait or feature of an organism that is the effect of a particular genotype. Flower color of snapdragons is one example of a phenotype, and the color is determined by which alleles comprise the genotype. Plants that are homozygous for the flower color alleles are either white or red. Heterozygous snapdragons are pink.
As opposed to the alleles? If so, you're thinking about the phenotype of an organism, which are the visible qualities. The genotype is the make up of alleles.
