When two allele pairs are identical it is considered to be?

Homozygous is the term used to describe an organism with two allele pairs that are identical, in reference to dominant characteristic traitÊin heredity.


Terms that describe two alleles of the same gene?

It sounds like you are referring to homozygous vs heterozygous. If an organism has two identical alleles of the same gene, it is said to be homozygous. If an organism has two different alleles of the same gene, it is said to be heterozygous.If a homozygous organism has two identical dominantalleles, it is said to be homozygous dominant, while an organism with two identical recessive alleles is said to be homozygous recessive.If this was not what you're asking, please clarify your question on the discussion page so someone can improve this answer.

What is homozygous and heterozygous genotypes and the notation used to express them?

Homozygous or heterozygous are terms used to describe the genotype of a diploid organism at a locus of the DNA. Homozygous means that the organism has the same two alleles at that locus denoted by AA for dominant alleles or AA for recessive. Heterozygous means that the organism has two different alleles at that locus and is denoted Aa.
