A heterozygous organism has two different alleles for a specific gene, one inherited from each parent. This genetic variation can influence traits and is important for the diversity and adaptability of populations. For example, in a gene with alleles A and a, an individual with genotype Aa is considered heterozygous. Heterozygosity can also affect an organism's phenotype, depending on the dominance relationships between the alleles.
An organism that has two different alleles for a single trait is called heterozygous. This means that the organism inherited different versions of the gene responsible for that trait from each parent.
heterozygous.
A heterozygous has 2 different alleles for a trait.
The scientist should perform a test cross between the organism and a homozygous recessive organism. If all offspring show the dominant trait, the original organism is homozygous dominant. If some offspring show the recessive trait, the original organism is heterozygous.
heterozygous. This means the organism has inherited two different versions of a gene that code for the same trait. One allele may be dominant and the other recessive, influencing the organism's phenotype.

An organism that has two different alleles for a single trait is called heterozygous. This means that the organism inherited different versions of the gene responsible for that trait from each parent.
The organism is in heterozygous condition.
heterozygous.
The most accurate description of an organism with genotype AaBb is heterozygous. A homozygous genotype is aaBB and AA.
The organism is heterozygous for that allele.
An organism with one dominant and one recessive gene for a trait is called a heterozygote. In this case, the dominant gene will be expressed in the organism's phenotype, while the recessive gene will not be expressed unless the organism inherits two copies of the recessive gene.
A heterozygous has 2 different alleles for a trait.
