a phenotype is the physical characteristics of an organism based on its genotype.
What is a trait that is not expressed when an organism receives genes for 2 different forms of a trait?
A trait that is not expressed when another is present is referred to as a recessive trait.
A unit that determines that trait?
A unit that determines a trait is called an allele
The principle or law of heridity which states that only the dominant trait can be seen in an organism that contains in genes a pair of contrasting traits is called?
Mendles law of dominance
When the alleles present for a trait are the same. the genes are called?
When the alleles present for a trait are the same, it is called Homozygous
What is an organism with two genes for a trait called?

What is an organism that has genes that are alike for a particular trait called?

What can affect an organism trait?
genes and the environment
What are the factors that control a trait called?

What are hetrozgous?
What is heterozygous? Your inherited characteristics are determined by your genes. Zygosity refers to the similarity of genes for a trait in an organism. If both genes are different, the organism is heterozygous (hetero = different) for that trait. If both genes are the same, the organism is homozyous (homo = same).
are traits of an organism?
A trait is a specific characteristic of an organism. Traits can be determined by genes or the environment, or more commonly by interactions between them. The genetic contribution to a trait is called the genotype. The outward expression of the genotype is called the phenotype.
What is an organism with two different genes for a specific trait?
Heterozygous.
What is a characteristic that an organism can pass on to an offspring through its genes?

What a genotype?
A genotype is an organism's combination of genes that forms a trait.
What is an organism with one dominant and one recessive gene for a trait?
that organism is a heterozygous one which contain the traits of recessive as well as dominant genes.
What does inherited trait mean?
