How many alleles does a zygote have for each trait?
No - some traits are polygenetic (such as for skin color, eye color, hair color, etc.) and will have multiple alleles.
If the male parent is heterozygous for a trait what alleles for each sperm cell possibly have?
A heterozygous male parent has two different alleles for a trait. During gamete formation, each sperm cell will carry one of the two alleles, either the dominant or recessive allele. This means that half of the sperm cells will carry one allele and the other half will carry the other allele.
Do most cells in your body have alleles for every trait?
Yes, most cells in the human body have two alleles for every gene that determine traits. These alleles come from each parent and are responsible for the variation in physical traits among individuals.
Where the alleles for given trait are inherited from?
The alleles for a given trait are inherited from an individual's parents.
What are the pair of alleles for a trait and how do they determine the expression of that trait?
Alleles are pairs of genes that determine a specific trait in an organism. Each parent contributes one allele, and the combination of alleles determines how the trait is expressed. If the alleles are the same (homozygous), the trait will be expressed in a certain way. If the alleles are different (heterozygous), one allele may be dominant and determine the trait's expression, while the other may be recessive and not expressed.

How many alleles for 1 trait do you get from your mother?
You get one allele for 1 trait from your mother. Alleles are alternative forms of a gene, and you inherit one allele for each trait from each parent.
Where the alleles for given trait are inherited from?
The alleles for a given trait are inherited from an individual's parents.
What does Scientists describe the set of information for each form of trait as?
Scientists describe the set of information for each form of trait as alleles. Alleles are alternative forms of a gene that can determine a specific trait in an individual. Each individual inherits two alleles for each gene, one from each parent.
What are the pair of alleles for a trait and how do they determine the expression of that trait?
Alleles are pairs of genes that determine a specific trait in an organism. Each parent contributes one allele, and the combination of alleles determines how the trait is expressed. If the alleles are the same (homozygous), the trait will be expressed in a certain way. If the alleles are different (heterozygous), one allele may be dominant and determine the trait's expression, while the other may be recessive and not expressed.
What are organisms that have two different alleles?
When you have two identical alleles you are said to be homozygous for that particular trait. If the trait is dominant, then you are homozygous dominant. If the trait is recessive, then you are homozygous recessive.
For each trait there are allele possibilities?
Yes, that is correct. Each trait is controlled by genes, and genes exist in different forms called alleles. For any given trait, an individual can have two alleles—one inherited from their mother and one from their father. These alleles can have different variations, resulting in different expression of the trait.
What are genetics material for a trait from each parent called?
alleles
What is a cell called when it has 2 identical allies?
A cell with two identical alleles for a particular gene is called homozygous. This means that both copies of the gene, one inherited from each parent, are the same. For example, if the alleles are for a trait like flower color, a homozygous cell could have two alleles for purple flowers. In contrast, a cell with two different alleles for a gene is called heterozygous.
How many alleles for one trait are normally found in the genotype of an organism?
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.
