What is the difference between homozygote-and-heterozygote?
The difference between the two is that a homozygote is an organism that has two identical genes at the same place on two corresponding chromosomes and a heterozygote desribes a cell or orangism that has two or more different versions of alleles of at least one of its genes
Explain what is meant by homo zygote and heterozygous?
A homozygote is an individual with two identical alleles (e.g., AA or aa) at a particular gene locus, while a heterozygote has two different alleles (e.g., Aa). The term refers to the genetic makeup of an organism and its effect on its phenotype.
Does BB x Bb is a heterozygous or homozygous?
A heterozygote means different-joineda homozygote means same-joinedso lets look at this cross. (parent genotype are Bold and italics)---B----bB | BB | Bb |--------------------B | BB | Bb |We see that 2 "joined" zygotes are BB and 2 are BbSO by definition 2 combinations produce a heterozygote "Bb"and 2 produce a homozygote "BB"
In a heterozygote the allele that does not affect the trait?
The allele that does not affect the trait in a heterozygote is known as the recessive allele. This allele is masked by the dominant allele, which determines the observable trait. However, the recessive allele can still be passed on to offspring if both parents are carriers.
This is the name of an organism with two different alleles?
The organism is heterozygous for that allele.
What is the difference between homozygote and homozygous?
A homozygote is a homozygous organism. An organism can be a heterozygote or a homozygote. "Hetero" means different and "Homo" means the same.
What is the difference between homozygote-and-heterozygote?
The difference between the two is that a homozygote is an organism that has two identical genes at the same place on two corresponding chromosomes and a heterozygote desribes a cell or orangism that has two or more different versions of alleles of at least one of its genes
Define the terms homozygote and heterozygote?
Homozygote: (genetics) an organism having two identical alleles of a particular gene and so breeding true for the particular characteristic. Heterozygote:(genetics) an organism having two different alleles of a particular gene and so giving rise to varying offspring.
An organism is called a homozygote if it carries two different alleles?
If both alleles are the same, the organism is homozygous for the trait. ... If one allele is missing, it is hemizygous, and if both alleles are missing, ... An organism is heterozygous

Does compound heterozygote mean from one parent only or from both parents?
A compound heterozygote has two different alleles in the same locus, either in only one strand (cis phase) or in the 2 ones (trans phase). In the first case, necessarily the strand ( or gamete ) must come from one parent; in the second, each parent transmit only each mutated allele. In both cases if the alleles are identical ( by nature or by descent ) the recipient is a homozygote, not a heterozygote .
What is the genotype for a brown eyed homozygote?
The genotype for a brown-eyed homozygote would be BB, where each allele represents the gene for brown eye color.
What does cells have?
Cells have a heterozygote.
Allele not expressed in heterozygote?
"recessive"
What is heterocigotos- alelos?
Spanish for heterozygote and alleles
What do you call a person who has one dominant and one recessive copy of a gene?
We call a gene that has two different alleles heterozygous.
