Phenotype refers to "what the organism looks like to the naked eye". You can think of it as - "If I look at that organism, what does it LOOK like? Is it tall, short, wrinkled, smooth, etc..".
Genotype refers to "what are the genetic reasons for why that item looks the way it looks?" Are the Alleles (one of the member of a pair or series of genes) homozygous or heterozygous? If an organism Alleles are homozygous it means that they are purebred for either the recessive or dominant trait (FF or ff). If an organisms Alleles are heterozygous for a specific trait it is due to a hybrid pairing (Ff).
Thus you could have 2 different organisms that have a phenotype of being TALL, but the reason for that could be based on a genotype of either Tt or TT (where T is the dominant trait for tallness).

Are two alleles the same in a homozygous genotype?
Yes, in a homozygous genotype, two alleles are the same.
How many of the possible types of offspring had the same genotype as the parents?
Use a punnet square it may be a little tricky though.Just remember which letter is dominant and which one is recessive.heterozygous and Homozygous.
How can one determine whether a genotype is heterozygous or homozygous?
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.
Can two organisms have the same genotype?
Yes.If* two or more organisms are formed from the same original cell, and* all divisions of that cell are by mitosis, and * there is no mutation, then the organisms will be genetically identical (= have the same genotype).Some examples:* human identical (monozygotic) twins * individuals of Hydra, a freshwater coelenterate, formed by budding * plants formed by vegetative propagation, such as budding (e.g. fruit trees in horticulture) and forming stolons (e.g. strawberries naturally)
What is the genotype of the control bulls he should use to test for the heterozygous genotype?
To test for heterozygosity, the control bulls should have a homozygous genotype. Using two bulls with the same homozygous genotype would be ideal for comparison when looking for heterozygosity.
Is it possible for 2 persons to have exactly the same observable treats?
yes and it's traits

What two genotypes are possible for a dog that has black fur?
No. They might have the same phenotype, but would not have the same genotype.
How is possible for two individuals to have the same phenotype but different genotype for a trait?
it is possible beccause you dont always need both

What percentage of the possible types of offsprings had the same genotype as the parents?
That depends entirely on the genotypes of the parents.

Can 2 organisms have different genotypes but the same phenotype?
No. It is possible for the reverse to be true, two organisms can have the same phenotype but a different genotype. This is because the phenotype is what you will see on the outside whereas the genotype is the combination of alleles and since this determines the phenotype, two organisms with the same genotype will have the same phenotype. So, basically, no. Actually 2 organisms can certainly have different phenotypes with the same genotype--this refers to the concept of penetrance. Some people can have the gene for a condition but never show symptoms. An excellent example of this is the disease neurofibromatosis. This disease has very variable penetrance in which a child of an affected parent may show no signs of the disease, but then have a child with a severe form.
Are two alleles the same in a homozygous genotype?
Yes, in a homozygous genotype, two alleles are the same.
Why it is difficult to exactly predict someone's traits even if you know their genotype?
genes are mixed around during sexual reproduction, and it ensures that the genes will not be the same.
