Heterozygous alleles are used to describe the 'parents' when creating a test cross chart. When completing a test cross there is more than comparing alleles, you are really comparing genetics. Heterozygous YY or yy versus Homozygous Yy, is just the first to consider.
A gene pair that consists of a dominant allele and a recessive allele is called a heterozygous gene. A homozygous gene, meanwhile, is a gene pair consisting of two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles.
In eyes, it would be brown is dominant, and blue is recessive. Free earlobe allele is said to be dominant over the attached earlobe allele. When an organism has two dominant alleles for a trait, it is called homozygous dominant. Two recessive alleles for a trait is homozygous recessive.
Dominent. Simple- you have two types of Alleles, Dominent and Reccessive. Imagine a punnet square for the allele that causes albinoism (A). One parent has Aa, or one dominent allele and one reccessive allele for the trait. If the dominent skin-tone gene wasn't there (A), then it would be AA and he would be an albino. But since he has a dominent allele, he has normal color. If he made a baby with another Aa combination, they would have 25% chance of having an AA baby with no reccessive allele, a 50% chance of having an identical Aa combination, and a 25% chance of having an albino baby, AA.
The trait received is recessive.
When genes are neither recessive nor dominant, they are said to exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance. In incomplete dominance, both alleles are expressed in the phenotype, resulting in a blending of traits. In co-dominance, both alleles are fully expressed in the phenotype, leading to a combination of traits.

Incomplete dominant alleles.
Dominant alleles override recessive alleles. For instance, if there is both a dominant allele and a recessive allele present the dominant allele will be the trait that you end up with. If you have two recessive alleles, then you will have the recessive trait. :::::::::::::::brown eyes overrided blue eyes, because they are darker:::::::::::::::::: usually a darker color overpowered/override the lighter ones....i dont really know why but my science teacher said so......
In eyes, it would be brown is dominant, and blue is recessive. Free earlobe allele is said to be dominant over the attached earlobe allele. When an organism has two dominant alleles for a trait, it is called homozygous dominant. Two recessive alleles for a trait is homozygous recessive.
homozygous means that the alleles that make up the genotype are the same, for example homozygous dominant would have two dominant alleles (RR) or homozygous recessive would have two recessive alleles (rr). the alternative would be heterozygous, where the genotype contains both a dominant and a recessive allele (Rr). so a homozygous plant would either have two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles for the seed colour. Now the way to find out whether it is homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive is to do a cross with a homozygous recessive plant and look at the seed colour (the phenotype). if the the original genotype is homozygous dominant the offspring seed colour will show the dominant seed colour becasue it will be heterozygous. But if the original plant is homozygous recessive the offspring will show the recessive phenotype.
A heterozygous is a hybrid of genes. It has a dominant and recessive gene. The dominant gene covers over the recessive trait, making the individual have the dominant trait. (trait are alleles...) or apex ans:two

The trait received is recessive.
When a gene expresses itself in the presence of a contrasting gene, it is said to be dominant. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles, leading to the phenotype associated with the dominant gene being observed in the organism. This concept is fundamental to Mendelian genetics, where the interaction between alleles determines observable traits.
When an individual has two different alleles for a gene, they are said to be heterozygous for that gene. This means that they have one dominant allele and one recessive allele for that particular trait.
When genes are neither recessive nor dominant, they are said to exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance. In incomplete dominance, both alleles are expressed in the phenotype, resulting in a blending of traits. In co-dominance, both alleles are fully expressed in the phenotype, leading to a combination of traits.
An organism with two different alleles for a trait is said to be heterozygous for that trait. This means that it has one dominant allele and one recessive allele. The dominant allele will usually determine the organism's phenotype for that trait.
