  1. Homozygous is a word that refers to a particular gene that has identical alleles on both homologous chromosomes. It is referred to by two capital letters (XX) for a dominant trait, and two lowercase letters (xx) for a recessive trait.

A living thing that shows a dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive for the trait true or false?

False because a living thing that shows a dominant trait can not be homozygous recessive. If it is homozygous recessive it will show recessive trait. A living thing that shows dominant trait may be homozygous dominant or hetrozygous.


What is the percentage of offspring that will exhibit the dominant trait from A crossing of A homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive individual?

The homozygous dominant individual can only pass on the dominant allele and the homozygous recessive individual can only pass on the recessive allele, therefore all offspring will be heterozygous and have the dominant phenotype.

They will produce gametes that are also homozygous.


What is the differences between homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive and heterozygous?

Homozygous dominant individuals have two copies of the dominant allele for a trait, homozygous recessive individuals have two copies of the recessive allele, and heterozygous individuals have one copy of each allele. Homozygous dominant and heterozygous individuals will express the dominant trait, while homozygous recessive individuals will express the recessive trait.


Is homozygous dominant a geneotype or phenotype?

homozygous dominant is the genotype. hypothetically, if the gene was for the color purple in a flower, the phenotype would be purple, while the genotype would be homozygous dominant AKA Pp.

What does it mean to be homozygous dominant heterozygous or homozygous recessive?

Homozygous means "same" so a homozygous recessive trait would be a same [with parents] trait that is not the stronger trait which is dominant. Dominant is stronger showing trait, recessive is weaker trait. If you are dealing with Punnett squares then tt is homozygous recessive and TT is homozygous dominant. Hope this helped...

What is it when you have a gene pair that consist of two dominate alleles and two recessive alleles?

The name of the gene pair that consists of a dominant and recessive allele, i.e. (Xx) will be a heterozygous allele. In this situation, the characteristics of the dominant characteristic will mask that of the recessive allele. People have have a heterozygous genotype may be carriers for diseases that reside on the recessive allele.
