What do geneticists call alleles that are both expressed in the phenotype when they are together?
Genetic makeup formed from both inherited alleles together is called a genotype. Homozygous alleles would be a pair of identical alleles for a single trait. Heterozygous is different alleles for a single trait.
What is the name for each gene in a pair of genes that might or might not carry the same info about a trait?
the name is hybrids
What is the trait being studied in the heterozygote?
a pair of nonidentical alleles
Compare homozygous alleles to heterozygous alleles?
When the alleles are identical, the individual is homozygous for that trait. While if the pair is made of two different alleles.
Genetics Tt and TT are examples of?
They are examples of a pair of alleles, possibly from the vitamin D receptor gene

What is the name for each gene in a pair of genes that might or might not carry the same info about a trait?
the name is hybrids
When two alleles in a pair are different?
When the alleles are different the organism is heterozygous for that trait. Another way of putting it is to say the genotype is heterozygous for that trait. The dominant allele will be seen in the phenotype ie what is displayed.Most traits are governed by more than one pair of alleles.
How are homozygous and heterozygous allele combinations for a particular trait in plants different?
A homozygous trait is expressed when 2 of the same alleles make up the genotype. For example, if two alleles (A and a) were present, the homozygous trait would be either AA or aa. In general, a fully recessive trait is only expressed when it's homozygous.
What are two alleles that are different for a trait?
They are known as a heterozygous pair
What is the trait being studied in the heterozygote?
a pair of nonidentical alleles
Compare homozygous alleles to heterozygous alleles?
When the alleles are identical, the individual is homozygous for that trait. While if the pair is made of two different alleles.
When a pair of chromosomes contains different alleles for a trait that trait is called a what when a trait has two identical alleles it is called?
2 different alelles - heterozygous Same alelles - homozygous
What are the two alleles that control the appearance of a trait?
Dominant and Recessive Alleles Diploid organisms typically have two alleles for a trait. When allele pairs are the same, they are homozygous. When the alleles of a pair are heterozygous, the phenotype of one trait may be dominant and the other recessive.
What is The different forms of a trait that make up a gene pair?
alleles
In humans a trait can be determined by one pair of many pairs of?
alleles.
