There is no requirement for heterozygous to be capitalized. You should only capitalize it if it forms part of a title or is at the beginning of a sentence.

What color are the guinea pig parents in the cross shown in punnette square B?
This depends on what punnet square b looks like. A guinea pig is homozygous if its two alleles are both dominant or both recessive. Usually, the homozygous parent is the one with either the two capital letters in the genotype or the two lowercase letters. Heterozygous is when there is one uppercase letter and one lowercase letter in the genotype.
Is AA a homozygous genotype?
homozygous = AA & AA Heterozygous = Aa
A dominant phenotype will only be expressed if the individual is homozygous dominant for that trait?
Well actually not necessarily. An individual can be homozygous or heterozygous dominant for a trait. As long as they have that dominant allele in that specific genetic trait, they will automatically express the dominant phenotype. If a person is homozygous dominant, it just means that they will pass on both dominant traits to the offspring. If a person is heterozygous dominant , it means that they will pass on both a dominant and recessive trait to their offspring.Hope that helps ! =D
What phenotype is produced by AB genotype?
The genotype AA represents a homozygous dominant genotype. The capital letter "A" represents the dominant allele, while the lowercase letter "a" would represent the recessive allele. If both dominant alleles are present in a genotype (homozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A" phenotype. If one dominant allele and one recessive allele are present (heterozygous dominant) then the phenotype is "A". Finally, if both recessive alleles "a" are present (homozygous recessive) then the phenotype is "a". Therefore, the answer to your question is the genotype AA would result in an "A" phenotype because the genotype is homozygous dominant.
Diffrence between homozygous and heterozygous?
They refer to the alleles in a genotype. For the basics of genetics, we can say that each allele is either dominant or recessive. Dominant is represented by an uppercase letter, and recessive a lowercase. If the genotype is AA, it is homozygous dominant. If it is aa it is homozygous recessive. If it is Aa, it is heterozygous. Simply, homozygous means that both of the alleles are the same and heterozygous means it has one of each allele.
What is the difference between uppercase and lowercase?
Uppercase---UPPERCASE TYPE LETTERS---Capital letters Lowercase---lowercase type letters----small letters
Is the genotypeAA a homozygous dominant or heterzygous dominant?
The two AA genes are the same uppercase letter, so they are homozygous. 'Homo' means 'same'. If the genotype was Aa, it would be heterozygous, because 'hetero' means 'different'.
What are uppercase and lowercase letters?
THESE LETTERS ARE IN UPPERCASE. these letters are in lowercase. These Letters Are in Upper and Lower Case.
What is uppercase and lowercase?
Uppercase and Lowercase is wut u use on the computer to type.Uppercase is Capital.Lowercase is smaller letters.

Is AA a homozygous genotype?
homozygous = AA & AA Heterozygous = Aa
How dominant and recessive alleles are represented in a Punnett Square?
Dominant alleles are written in upper case (i.e, 'A'), while recessive alleles are lower case (i.e, 'a')
What is the antonym of uppercase?
It's lowercase

What are the names of the genotypes?
Homozygous dominant (Ex:AA) Heterozygous (Ex:Aa) Homozygous recessive (Ex:aa)
What is the difference between homozgous and heterozygous?
Heterozygous vs. Homozygous: These terms refer to genetic mutations. There are two copies of the protein codes in the genetic code. If one copy is normal and the other has the mutation, it is said to be heterozygous. If both copies have the mutation, it is said to be homozygous. For example: A/A -- homozygous. A/a -- heterozygous. a/A -- heterozygous. a/a -- homozygous.Homologous refers to the pair of chromosomes that are the same whilst Homozygous refers to the fact that alleles of a gene pair are the same
Are days of the week and month of the year always lowercase or uppercase?
As proper nouns they should be written with an initial uppercase letter followed by the rest of the letters in lowercase.
