What is when an individual has two copies of a dominant allele?
When an individual has two copies of a dominant allele, they will display the dominant trait associated with that allele. Dominant alleles mask the expression of recessive alleles in a gene pair.
Describes a trait or an allele that is expressed only when two of the alleles for the saame characteristic are inherited?
A trait or allele that is only expressed when two alleles of the same type are inherited is called recessive. This means that the individual must inherit two copies of the recessive allele to exhibit the trait. If an individual inherits one dominant allele and one recessive allele for a trait, the dominant allele will be expressed.
Homozygous for b allele?
Being homozygous for the "b" allele means that an individual has two identical copies of the "b" allele at a specific gene locus. This implies that both alleles are the same, resulting in a specific genetic trait or characteristic associated with the "b" allele being expressed.
What type of gene has Identical alleles?
A homozygous gene has identical alleles. Homozygous means the individual has two copies of the same allele for a particular gene.
When two allele pairs are identical it is considered to be?
Homozygous is the term used to describe an organism with two allele pairs that are identical, in reference to dominant characteristic traitÊin heredity.
A diploid individual whose two copies of a given genes are the same?
A diploid individual with two identical copies of a gene is said to be homozygous for that gene. This means that both copies of the gene are the same allele.
What is when an individual has two copies of a dominant allele?
When an individual has two copies of a dominant allele, they will display the dominant trait associated with that allele. Dominant alleles mask the expression of recessive alleles in a gene pair.
What is a fact for homozygous?
an individual containing 2 copies of the same allele for a particular trait located at similar positions on paired chromosomes

This means that the individual must inherit two copies of the recessive allele to exhibit the trait. If an individual inherits one dominant allele and one recessive allele for a trait, the dominant allele will be expressed.

What type of gene has Identical alleles?
A homozygous gene has identical alleles. Homozygous means the individual has two copies of the same allele for a particular gene.
When both allele of the gene are the same what is the individual?
homozygous
When two allele pairs are identical it is considered to be?
Homozygous is the term used to describe an organism with two allele pairs that are identical, in reference to dominant characteristic traitÊin heredity.
What is the form of a gene that is hidden or masked when any other form of that same gene is present?
The hidden or masked form of a gene is called recessive. Recessive genes are only expressed when an individual carries two copies of the recessive allele. When a dominant allele is present, it will be expressed instead of the recessive allele.
If an individual has the copies of a trait the same what is it called?
If an individual has two identical copies of a trait, it is called homozygous for that trait. This means that both copies of the gene are the same, whether they are dominant or recessive.
In sickle-cell disease an allele produces red blood cells with an abnormal shape which affect many other traits in the same individual. What genetic behavior does this describes?
pleiotropy
If you have two copies of the same allele are considered to be for that traits whereas if you have two different alleles you are considered to be for that trait?
Having two copies of the same allele for a trait is termed homozygous, while having two different alleles for a trait is heterozygous. Homozygous individuals will display the trait determined by that allele, while heterozygous individuals may express either allele's trait, depending on dominance relationships.
