Alleles come in pairs. Organisms inherit one allele from each parent organism with sexual reproduction. If the alleles are the same, they could be said to be pure alleles. The science term is monozygous.

Homozygous.


What is the genotype of pure lines?

The genotype of pure lines refers to individuals that are homozygous for a particular trait, meaning they carry the same alleles for that trait. For example, in a pure line of plants, all individuals would have the same genotype for a specific gene, such as AA or aa. This genetic uniformity is desired in breeding and research to study the effects of specific alleles.

What is the principle of dominance?

The Principle of Dominance states that some alleles are dominant and some alleles are recessive. The dominant trait dominates or presents the expression of the recessive trait. Thus, for round seed: (capital) R - round (small) r - wrinkled RR - pure round Rr - hybrid round rr - pure wrinkled


What is homozyous?

"Homozygous" refers to an individual having two identical alleles for a particular gene. This can either be two dominant alleles (homozygous dominant) or two recessive alleles (homozygous recessive). Homozygosity increases the likelihood of genetic traits being expressed.


Two different forms of the same gene are called?

What does pure dominant mean?

"Pure dominant" refers to a genetic trait that is consistently expressed when a specific allele is present in an individual's genotype. In inheritance patterns, a pure dominant trait will mask the presence of any recessive alleles in the same gene.


What are contrasting forms of genes called?

Alleles


What type of alleles mask recessive alleles?

Dominant alleles :-)
