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.

∙ 14y agoOrganisms with two alleles that are the same are called homozygous organisms.Homo means "same" and zygote means "living organism". generally each cell consists of one pair of alleles for a certain character. for example the two alleles which govern your body height is T, and its appearance in the cell will be TT or Tt or tt. Incase the pairing is between TT or tt, the organism will be called as homozygous, while if the case is Tt the organism will be called Heterozygous.

Organism that has two diffrent alleles for a single trait?
An organism with two different alleles for a trait? is a hybrid
When two alleles of an inherited pair are different the dominant allele determines the organisms appearance?
True
Which of mendels principles would apply to mating two organisms that have two different alleles for three different traits?
the law of independent assorment
How many copies of alleles do organisms carry?
It depends on the organism but humans have two alleles.
Two different forms of the same gene are called?
Alleles
Organisms that has two different alleles for a trait?
Having two different alleles for a trait is called heterozygous.
Organisms with two different alleles for a trait?
The organism that has two different alleles for the same trait is called heterozygous. This also refers to a cell or an individual that has two different forms of gene.

When organisms have different alleles?
When they are heterozygous.
When two alleles of an inherited pair are different the dominant allele determines the organisms appearance?
True
What organisms is heterzygous?
A heterozygous organism has two different alleles for a given gene. The opposite of a heterozygous organism is a homozygous organism which has two alleles that are the same for that specific gene. Genes can exist in more than one form and the different forms are called alleles. Alleles code for different types of the same characteristic

What organisms with two alleles are called?
Genes
Can two organisms have the same phenotype and a different genotype?
Yes,if one has two dominant alleles and other has a dominant and a recessive allele
How many copies of alleles do organisms carry?
It depends on the organism but humans have two alleles.
What do scientist call an organisms that has two different alleles for a trait?
Heterozygous.
An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait?
Are known as homozygous. Homozygous individuals can also be called 'purebred'. Organisms with two different alleles are known as heterozygous.
