nn
Alleles
they are found on different chromosomes. *
No two people in the world are exactly the same except identical twins. Their chromosomes are exactly the same because the egg split in two and formed two identical embryos.
A diploid is an organism with a 2n genome. that means every gene is encoded twice, the 2 genes could be exactly the same or different (alleles) most animals and plants you see are diploid.
an organism with two alleles that are exactly the same
Homozygons

This are chromosomes that have exactly the same length that contain the same gene but those genes have different alleles.
Alleles that are the same = homozygous Alleles that are different = heterozygous
Alleles
Alleles are different versions of the same gene

The different molecular versions of the same gene are called alleles.
