Homozygous positive refers to an individual who has two identical alleles for a specific gene, both of which carry a dominant trait or mutation. In genetics, this term is often used in the context of certain tests, such as those for genetic disorders or traits, indicating that the individual has inherited the same allele from both parents. This can have implications for traits, diseases, or characteristics associated with that gene.
Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles in a given trait.
Identical pairs of alleles are called homozygous alleles.
When you say homozygous, you're talking about genes. It's almost impossible, or not known, if a human has had genes of all homozygousity.
Homozygous Dominant for a trait means that an organism has two dominant alleles for that trait. Here's an example: Trait: Widow's Peak Widow's Peak allele: Dominant (D) No widow's peak allele: Reccessive(d) Homozygous Dominant (DD) Homozygous Reccessive (dd) Heterozygous (Dd)
There are two forms of Homozygous inheritance: Homozygous Dominant, and Homozygous Recessive. In order for two parents that are Homozygous to produce a Heterozygous offspring, one of them MUST be Homozygous Dominant, and the other MUST be Homozygous Recessive.
There is 50% that children will be of negative blood type if parents are heterozygous positive. 25% if one parent is homozygous and other heterozygous. 0% if both homozygous.
Homozygous.
homozygous
The blood type of any children would depend on the zygosity in the woman. (Both O and Rh negative are recessive, and will be homozygous in the man). If the woman is homozygous B, then the children will B. If the woman is heterozygous B, either O or B (with 50% chance of each). In the same way, if the woman is homozygous Rh positive, then the children will also be positive. If the woman is heterozygous, then children will be either positive or negative. In short, the possibilities for child blood types are either B or O, with Rh positive or negative.
both chromosomes from your parents are the same
Homozygous refers to having two identical alleles in a given trait.
It is called Homozygous.
homozygous = AA & AA Heterozygous = Aa
homozygous? homozygous? homozygous dominant
No, Rr represents heterozygous genotype as there are two different alleles (R and r) present. For a genotype to be homozygous, both alleles must be the same (RR or rr).
Its like another offspring of a homozygous heterzygous in genetics mean both
An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait is known as a homozygote or a homozygous organism.
