A heterosexual individual typically has a combination of both dominant and recessive alleles for traits related to their biological sex, such as those involved in sex determination and reproductive function. These alleles are inherited from their parents and are carried on their chromosomes.
Yes, in a homozygous individual, both alleles for a particular gene are the same.
Individual versions of genes are called alleles. Alleles are variations of a gene that can result in different traits or characteristics in an organism. Each individual inherits two alleles for each gene, one from each parent.
The genotype of an individual with two different alleles for a specific gene is called heterozygous.
No, alleles for a trait can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous) in an individual.
In genetic inheritance, a pair of alleles refers to the two forms of a gene that an individual inherits from their parents. These alleles can be either the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous). The relationship between a pair of alleles determines how they interact to determine the traits or characteristics of an individual. This interaction is known as Mendelian genetics, where dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles.
a heterozygous individual has different alleles because one is dominant but the other is recessive.
They are considered to be heterozygous not heterosexual!
2, it means that both of the alleles are different when compared to homozygous. Homozygous alleles are like aa or AA. Heterozygous simply means Aa so it has one dominant and one recessive allele
Yes, in a homozygous individual, both alleles for a particular gene are the same.

The alleles for a given trait are inherited from an individual's parents.

heterozygous
No, alleles for a trait can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous) in an individual.
When two alleles combine, they create the genotype of an individual. This genotype determines the physical and biochemical traits of the organism. The combination of alleles can result in different phenotypes, which are the observable characteristics of an individual.
