homozygous
Homozygous
it means homozygous. if both alleles are recessive, the trait will be homozygous recessive. if both alleles are dominant, then the trait is homozygous dominant.
An allele is a letter representing the alternative forms of a gene. In most cases, there will be a dominative allele, written as the capital letter (in this case, H, although the allele can be any letter), and there will be a recessive allele, written as the lowercase of the same letter as the dominative allele for that particular trait (h).

These alleles can be homozygous (both the same, such as in a purebreed) eg HH or hh. On the other hand, they can also be heterozygous, meaning that the gene has one dominative allele, and one recessive allele. This is written as Hh.

When something that is homozygous (either homozygous dominant, HH, or recessive, hh,) is bred with another homozygous that is the same, the offspring will have two identical alleles. For example, a plant that is homozygous with the alleles HH to produce the trait of red flowers, is pollinated by another plant, also homozygous HH for the trait of red flowers. The offspring will also have the homozygous alleles HH and will be a pure bred for red flowers.

Such is the case for anything. If a gene has two alleles that are identical, it will be purebred for that particular trait produced by those alleles.

Homozygous. Either homozygous dominant, or homozygous recessive.
