No, alleles for a trait can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous) in an individual.
Individuals with the same alleles for a specific trait will have similar physical characteristics related to that trait. On the other hand, individuals with different alleles for the same trait will have varying physical characteristics. This is because alleles determine the expression of traits, and different alleles can lead to different outcomes in terms of physical appearance or other characteristics.
A trait that appears only when both alleles are present is called a recessive trait. In this case, the trait is masked when the dominant allele is present, but becomes visible when two copies of the recessive allele are inherited.
Two different alleles for the same trait are heterozygous. No, Its homozygous. This answer is incorrect as homo = same.
The term used to refer to the actual combination of two sets of alleles for the same trait is homozygous.
An organism has two alleles for one trait. If the two alleles are the same, the individual is homozygous for that trait, and if they are different, the individual is heterozygous.
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).

Two of the same alleles for the same trait.

if the two alleles are the same in the same box in the punnett square then that trait is expressed. when there is a double in a punnett square then that gene is always expressed

Alleles
An organism has two alleles for one trait. If the two alleles are the same, the individual is homozygous for that trait, and if they are different, the individual is heterozygous.
If an individual possesses two identical alleles for a particular trait, they are said to be homozygous. This means that the alleles are the same and there is no variation for that trait.
