Yes, in a homozygous genotype, two alleles are the same.
One can determine whether a genotype is heterozygous or homozygous by looking at the alleles present. If there are two different alleles for a particular gene, the genotype is heterozygous. If there are two of the same alleles, the genotype 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.
A genotype in which both alleles are the same is called homozygous. This means that the individual has two identical alleles for a particular gene (e.g., AA or aa). Homozygous genotypes can be either homozygous dominant (both alleles are dominant) or homozygous recessive (both alleles are recessive).
No, Rr represents heterozygous genotype as there are two different alleles (R and r) present. For a genotype to be homozygous, both alleles must be the same (RR or rr).
When two of the same alleles are needed to be seen in the offspring's genotype, those alleles are referred to as homozygous alleles. This means that both alleles at a specific genetic locus are identical, leading to the expression of a specific trait.

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.
A genotype in which both alleles are the same is called homozygous. This means that the individual has two identical alleles for a particular gene (e.g., AA or aa). Homozygous genotypes can be either homozygous dominant (both alleles are dominant) or homozygous recessive (both alleles are recessive).

No, Rr represents heterozygous genotype as there are two different alleles (R and r) present. For a genotype to be homozygous, both alleles must be the same (RR or rr).
When two of the same alleles are needed to be seen in the offspring's genotype, those alleles are referred to as homozygous alleles. This means that both alleles at a specific genetic locus are identical, leading to the expression of a specific trait.
A genotype consisting of two identical alleles of a gene for a particular trait is called homozygous. This means that both alleles are the same, which can either be dominant or recessive. Homozygous genotypes can result in the expression of a specific trait depending on the alleles involved.
homozygous = AA & AA Heterozygous = Aa
A homozygous genotype refers to having two identical alleles for a particular gene. It can be either homozygous dominant (two dominant alleles, such as AA) or homozygous recessive (two recessive alleles, such as aa).
Homozygous = identical allelesHeterozygous = different allelesEven though the genotype has two of the same letter, the difference in capitalization signifies they are different.Thus, Cc is heterozygous
Not necessarily. CC can be a homozygous genotype if both alleles are the same (for example, CC for a particular gene). However, CC can also represent a heterozygous genotype if it stands for two different alleles in a diploid organism (for example, Cc).
