Homozygous = identical alleles
Heterozygous = different alleles
Even though the genotype has two of the same letter, the difference in capitalization signifies they are different.
Thus, Cc is heterozygous
Homozygous
Three types of genotypes that exist for pea plant height are: TT - Homozygous dominant genotype for tall height Tt - Heterozygous genotype for tall height tt - Homozygous recessive genotype for short height
Are you talking about phenotype or genotype? Phenotype is the expression of the genotype. Genotype is what you inherited. Phenotype is what you see. Homozygous is the same. Heterozygous is different. If you inherit one allele for blue eyes and one allele for brown eyes, your phenotype should be brown eyes. Your genotype would be brown eyes, blue eyes. You would have a heterozygous genotype.
The genes an organism contains is called the organism's genotype.
The trait that would be expressed in a heterozygous genotype would be the dominant trait. If one allele is dominant then it will be expressed.
Not necessarily. CC can be a homozygous genotype if both alleles are the same (for example, CC for a particular gene). However, CC can also represent a heterozygous genotype if it stands for two different alleles in a diploid organism (for example, Cc).
Yy is a heterozygous genotype. Homozygous would be YY or yy.
One can determine whether a genotype is heterozygous or homozygous by looking at the alleles present. If there are two different alleles for a particular gene, the genotype is heterozygous. If there are two of the same alleles, the genotype is homozygous.
homozygous- TT; heterozygous- Tt :)
50% of the rabbits will be cc and 50% of the rabbits will be Cc. The punnet square is simple because one rabbit is homozygous recessive and the other is heterozygous. The genotype is then defined by the heterozygous (Cc) rabbit.
No, because it has the AA and the CC those are homozygous. The Bb is the only heterozygous trait, and there is only 1.
The genotype of the individual is homozygous for the trait in question.
Heterozygous
A CC genotype is homozygous, meaning both alleles at that gene locus are the same (in this case, both are "C"). In contrast, a heterozygous genotype would be represented as Cc, indicating two different alleles at that gene locus.
Yes - Hh is heterozygous. HH is homozygous, and hh is homozygous.
Homozygous
The most accurate description of an organism with genotype AaBb is heterozygous. A homozygous genotype is aaBB and AA.
