Actually, there aren't specific letters. The letters depend on the alleles. For example, if the alleles are A and a, then Aa would be heterozygous, since hetero means different. Homozygous, however, would be two of the same alleles, since homo means same. The homozygous would be AA or AA in this example.

Using letters how would you represent a plant tgat had hetrozygous tall?

If a plant is heterozygous tall you would use letters such as "T" for "tall" or "t" for short. If a plant is heterozygous tall it means that the "T" is the dominant gene but the plant carries both a dominant and recessive gene, represented by "Tt".

When two alleles in a pair are different?

When the alleles are different the organism is heterozygous for that trait. Another way of putting it is to say the genotype is heterozygous for that trait. The dominant allele will be seen in the phenotype ie what is displayed.Most traits are governed by more than one pair of alleles.
