The answer is heterozygous.
The term that best describes the inheritance of cystic fibrosis is that it is genetic. Cystic fibrosis is caused by recessive alleles. Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive genetic disease.

Homozygenous recessive.
The term for an individual with a dominant and a recessive allele for a trait is "heterozygous." This means they have two different alleles for a specific gene, with one being dominant and the other recessive.
A genotype consisting of two different alleles is a heterozygote.
The term used to describe when a genotype consists of either two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles is "homozygous." When an organism has two identical alleles for a trait, it is homozygous dominant (for two dominant alleles) or homozygous recessive (for two recessive alleles). In contrast, if the alleles are different, the organism is referred to as "heterozygous."
homozygous dominant or recessive depending on what gene it is

A synonym for homozygous recessive is "homozygous for a recessive trait." This term refers to an individual who has two identical recessive alleles for a particular gene. In genetic notation, it is often represented as "aa," where "a" signifies the recessive allele.
The term that describes two paired alleles that are different from each other is "heterozygous." In a heterozygous genotype, one allele may be dominant while the other is recessive, leading to variations in phenotype. This genetic diversity is crucial for evolution and adaptation in populations.
Homozygous -It is the characteristic of having two identical alleles at the same locus of sister chromatids.homozygous means having identical alleles at corresponding chromosomal locus or the specific site of a particular gene on its chromosome
You would expect 1 homozygous dominant, 2 heterozygous dominant and 1 homozygous recessive offspring. This is because each parent has one dominant and one recessive allele. Therefore there is a 75% chance of a dominant phenotype and a 25% chance of a recessive phenotype.
