You get one allele for 1 trait from your mother. Alleles are alternative forms of a gene, and you inherit one allele for each trait from each parent.
In a trait with two alleles represented by p and q, the sum of the frequencies of the alleles must equal 1. Therefore, if p = 0.35, you can find q by subtracting p from 1. This gives q = 1 - 0.35, which means q = 0.65.
In a population with two alleles for a trait, the frequencies of the alleles must add up to 1. If the frequency of allele p is 0.68, then the frequency of allele q can be calculated as q = 1 - p. Therefore, q = 1 - 0.68 = 0.32.
Purebred genotypes are those that are homozygous for a specific trait, meaning they have identical alleles for that trait. For instance, if the genotypes include AA or aa, these would be considered purebred, as both alleles are the same. In contrast, heterozygous genotypes, like Aa, are not purebred because they contain different alleles.
Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles for a trait, while heterozygous refers to having two different alleles for a trait. In other words, homozygous individuals have either two dominant or two recessive alleles, while heterozygous individuals have one dominant and one recessive allele.
Offspring that posses two different forms of the same gene. These are called alleles.
The answer to your question, "What is an organism with 2 of the same alleles for a trait called?" is homozygous. it is just homozygous-By SciienceFreak

The trait for fur color can be both. In some species, like mice, fur color is determined by a single gene with different alleles. In other species, like dogs or humans, fur color can be controlled by multiple genes interacting together (polygenic trait).
An individual must have 2 recessive alleles in order for a trait to show up. One must only have 1 dominant allele in order for a trait to occur.

Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles for a trait, while heterozygous refers to having two different alleles for a trait. In other words, homozygous individuals have either two dominant or two recessive alleles, while heterozygous individuals have one dominant and one recessive allele.
q is 1-p = 0.81
Genes are segments of DNA that encode specific traits, while alleles are different variations of a gene that can result in different forms of a trait. Each individual inherits two alleles for a gene, one from each parent, which can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous).
