What is the difference between homozygote-and-heterozygote?
The difference between the two is that a homozygote is an organism that has two identical genes at the same place on two corresponding chromosomes and a heterozygote desribes a cell or orangism that has two or more different versions of alleles of at least one of its genes
Does BB x Bb is a heterozygous or homozygous?
A heterozygote means different-joineda homozygote means same-joinedso lets look at this cross. (parent genotype are Bold and italics)---B----bB | BB | Bb |--------------------B | BB | Bb |We see that 2 "joined" zygotes are BB and 2 are BbSO by definition 2 combinations produce a heterozygote "Bb"and 2 produce a homozygote "BB"
In a heterozygote the allele that does not affect the trait?
A heterozygote has the genotype of the dominant allele...therefore the recessive trait is the one that is masked.
An allele is dominant in a heterozygote when it is?
cold
What genotype has different alleles?
The genotype that has two different alleles is heterozygous
What is the difference between homozygote and homozygous?
A homozygote is a homozygous organism. An organism can be a heterozygote or a homozygote. "Hetero" means different and "Homo" means the same.

Define the terms homozygote and heterozygote?
Homozygote: (genetics) an organism having two identical alleles of a particular gene and so breeding true for the particular characteristic. Heterozygote:(genetics) an organism having two different alleles of a particular gene and so giving rise to varying offspring.

Does compound heterozygote mean from one parent only or from both parents?
A compound heterozygote has two different alleles in the same locus, either in only one strand (cis phase) or in the 2 ones (trans phase). In the first case, necessarily the strand ( or gamete ) must come from one parent; in the second, each parent transmit only each mutated allele. In both cases if the alleles are identical ( by nature or by descent ) the recipient is a homozygote, not a heterozygote .
An organism is called a homozygote if it carries two different alleles?
If both alleles are the same, the organism is homozygous for the trait. ... If one allele is missing, it is hemizygous, and if both alleles are missing, ... An organism is heterozygous
What does cells have?
Cells have a heterozygote.
In a heterozygote the allele that does not affect the trait?
A heterozygote has the genotype of the dominant allele...therefore the recessive trait is the one that is masked.
Allele not expressed in heterozygote?
"recessive"
An allele is dominant in a heterozygote when it is?
cold
What can the genotype Kk can be described as?
Heterozygote
What is hidden in the heterozygote?
recessive gene
