A Trait Could Show Up In Two Different Forms
The answer to your question, "What is an organism with 2 of the same alleles for a trait called?" is homozygous. it is just homozygous-By SciienceFreak
Genotypes consist of two alleles for every trait. You inherit one allele from one parent, and another from the other parent.
Every sex cell has one allele for each trait. after meiosis, pairs of chromosomes separate and alleles for each trait also separate into different sex cells.
To be pure for a specific trait means that both of the alleles that comprise that trait are both dominant alleles.
this makes no scientific sense. A gene (which determines a phenotypic trait) can only contain 2 alleles. However codominace allows for multiple alleles to be chosen from, but only 2 picked for a gene. Also, if multiple genes determine a phenotypic trait that's polygenic inheritance.
2 different alelles - heterozygous Same alelles - homozygous

heterogenous
A heterozygous has 2 different alleles for a trait.
they are found on different chromosomes. *
2
2
the 2 alleles of the gene for the trait are different on the 2 homologous chromosomesBeing heterozygous for a trait means that they have different alleles for a trait. For instance: Tt would be heterozygous and TT or tt would be homozygous because they are both eitehr little or big t's.it mean the gene is not pure or for example suppose a person is blood group A but actually he is having A and O; because O is recessive trait the gene express the A trait instead, making the person having blood group A.
Hi I'm 12 .A heterozygous organism is one with 2 different alleles for one trait
Hi I'm 12 .A heterozygous organism is one with 2 different alleles for one trait
Genotypes consist of two alleles for every trait. You inherit one allele from one parent, and another from the other parent.
A homozygous trait is expressed when 2 of the same alleles make up the genotype. For example, if two alleles (A and a) were present, the homozygous trait would be either AA or aa. In general, a fully recessive trait is only expressed when it's homozygous.
