homozygous
homozygous
That is heterozygous. Some scientist call these "hybrids"(no joke)The person is heterozygous for that trait and will have the dominant phenotype.An organism with both a dominant and recessive allele for a specific trait is called an heterozygote. They are heterozygous for this trait.
Dominant is an allele that will always be expressed in a heterozygous individual. Recessive on other hand are traits that will only be expressed in a homozygous condition. Organisms receive one allele for each trait from each parent, thus you have two alleles for each trait.
Dominant is an allele that can be expressed in a heterozygous individual (ie. Bb) or homozygous dominant (ie. BB). Recessive on other hand are traits that will only be expressed in a homozygous recessive (ie. bb) condition. Under normal circumstances, dominant alleles are the ones expressed in the phenotype, while the recessive allele is not. For example (an extremely simplified example) an heterozygous individual for eye color. (genotype Bb), has one dominant allele, 'B', and one recessive allele, 'b'. Given that B is for brown eyes, and b is for blue eyes, that individual's phenotype would be expressed as brown eyes (and be recessive for blue eyes). Organisms receive one allele for each trait from each parent, thus you have two alleles for each trait.
a dominant allele will express its trait , as well as be carried by the person. the word carrier is commonly used for a person who bears an allele which does not express itself(i.e. a recessive gene).
The different forms of a gene are called alleles. In Mendelian genetics, a gene has a dominant allele and a recessive allele. The dominant allele masks the recessive allele if present. So there are two possible dominant genotypes: homozygous dominant, in which both dominant alleles are present; and heterozygous, in which one allele is dominant and the other allele is recessive. The only way to express a recessive trait is to have the homozygous recessive genotype.
incomplete dominance
Allele The specific trait may be either in homozygous or heterozygous condition. The expression of the trait depends on its dominant or recessive condition.

A homozygous trait is controlled by only one kind of allele, while a heterozygous trait is controlled by multiple allele types.
No. A recessive allele will not be expressed phenotypically in the heterozygous state. A recessive allele can only be expressed phenotypically in the homozygous state.
recessive
In heterozygous individuals, only the dominant allele is expressed. The recessive allele is present, but not expressed
If you are heterozygous this means you carry both a dominant and recessive allele. if you are heterozygous for a recessive trait then you will have a dominant and recessive allele. example: let T represent tall and t represent short. a person with heterozygous for a recessive trait will have 'Tt'.
Heterozygous
If an individual has one recessive allele and one dominant allele, they are known as heterozygous. The dominant trait will be expressed.
Heterozygous.
