Homozygous Dominant for a trait means that an organism has two dominant alleles for that trait. Here's an example: Trait: Widow's Peak Widow's Peak allele: Dominant (D) No widow's peak allele: Reccessive(d) Homozygous Dominant (DD) Homozygous Reccessive (dd) Heterozygous (Dd)
It means that the organism will breed true - in other words, the offspring will resemble the parents.
the organism that have two identical alleles would be called homozygous for that particular gene.
The term used to refer to an organism that has two indentical alleles for the particular trait is homozygous. A trait could be homozygous dominant (TT), homozygous recessive (tt), or homozygous for incomplete dominance (rr).
Scientists use a test cross to determine if an organism is heterozygous or homozygous dominant.
An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait is known as a homozygote or a homozygous organism.

A homozygote is a homozygous organism. An organism can be a heterozygote or a homozygote. "Hetero" means different and "Homo" means the same.

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.
Are known as homozygous. Homozygous individuals can also be called 'purebred'. Organisms with two different alleles are known as heterozygous.
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.
