If you are looking to see what happens to a specific trait, this is not actually an answerable question in this context. It is so open-ended. Also, parents are not directly homozygous or heterozygous, the genes are. However, in the simplest case, half of the offspring would be homozygous for the gene in question and half would be heterozygous. How this affects the phenotypic trait under observation depends on a lot of other things.

What happens when a population is in Hardy m-Weinberg equilibrium?
Allele frequency is stable.(Apex)
What an allele?
An allele is an alternative form of a gene that is found at the same location on a chromosome.
What happens when 2 different allele s for the same trait are present?
if the two alleles are the same in the same box in the punnett square then that trait is expressed. when there is a double in a punnett square then that gene is always expressed
Many people use the terms gene and allele interchangeably Are they the same please explain?
Gene and allele are not the same thing. An allele is one variation of a gene. A gene refers to the entire genetic code for a trait.
To have double dose of the same allele?
Homozygous
Can two organisms have different genotypes but the same phenotype?
One way is if an allele for the gene in question is dominant. Homozygotes for the dominant allele and heterozygotes will both have the same phenotype.Organisms have the same phenotype, or physical characteristics. They do not, however, have the same genotype, or genetic makeup. If T represent tall, and t represnts short then the organism will have the genotypes TT and Tt. If you make a Punnett square you will have the same phenotype but different genotypes. Unless some weird mutation occurs....

How are the bases in one allele different from the bases in another allele?
The bases in one allele is different from bases in another allele because an allele is different forms of the same gene. This means that even though they have been programed for the same thing there is a variation
What happens when a population is in hardy weinberg equillibrium?
In Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, allele frequencies in a population remain constant from generation to generation. This means that the population is not evolving. Factors such as no mutation, no gene flow, random mating, large population size, and no natural selection contribute to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
What an allele?
An allele is an alternative form of a gene that is found at the same location on a chromosome.
What term describes an individual with two copies of the same allele?
The individual with two of the same allele is "homozygous" for a trait.
What is a type of gene?
Do you mean allele? An allele is a different molecular form of the same gene.
What happens when 2 different allele s for the same trait are present?
if the two alleles are the same in the same box in the punnett square then that trait is expressed. when there is a double in a punnett square then that gene is always expressed

How can two organisms have the same phenotype but different genotype?
One organism is heterozygosis, the other is homozygous.
What is the differnet form of the same gene called?
an allele
