homozygous
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).
It would depend on if the dominant genes are the same or different. Say the dominant alleles were different. In this case, they are co-dominant. If they are the same and both dominant homosytus.
A dominant trait is expressed when two different genes for the same trait are present.
recessive trait
They are both used to format your genetic make up.
Alleles
Alleles
Having the same genes for a specific trait means that individuals possess identical copies of the gene responsible for that trait. This may result in similar physical characteristics or behaviors. It can be influenced by both genetic inheritance from parents and environmental factors.
dominant
recessive
If the two different genes include one dominant allele and one recessive allele, which is the heterozygous genotype, the dominant phenotype is expressed. For example, if R represents the red flower allele and r represents the white flower allele, the flowers would be red. If the trait is governed by incomplete dominance, then the heterozygous genotype (Rr) will produce an intermediate phenotype, such as pink.
When the alleles present for a trait are the same, the genes are called homozygous. This means that both alleles for a particular gene are identical. Homozygous individuals can have either two dominant alleles (homozygous dominant) or two recessive alleles (homozygous recessive).
