yes, different forms of a gene is called an allele. It was used in the early days of genetics to describe variant forms of a gene detected as different phenotypes
Allele
the alternative form of a gene is called an "allele."
A recessive gene will not display its trait in the presence of a dominant trait. A recessive gene only expresses its trait when paired with another copy of the same recessive gene.
An indiviual letter in a punnett square representing a gene is called an allele. The two genes ( one from each parent ) together is a genotype. There isn't really two forms of a gene.
Having only one allele for a given gene means that there is no second copy of that gene present. This can be significant because it can lead to genetic disorders or traits being expressed more strongly, as there is no backup copy of the gene to compensate for any potential mutations or deficiencies.
The answer is an allele.
Allele
These are called alleles.
Normal gametes should contain one allele from each gene.

A gene pair is called an allele. An allele is an alternative form of a gene that is located on a specific chromosome at a specific place.
Each gene has a dominate and recessive allele, so there are two types of alleles in each gene. The dominate allele is stronger than the recessive allele unless there are two recessive alleles.
