the 2 alleles of the gene for the trait are different on the 2 homologous chromosomes
Being heterozygous for a trait means that they have different alleles for a trait. For instance: Tt would be heterozygous and TT or tt would be homozygous because they are both eitehr little or big t's.
it mean the gene is not pure or for example suppose a person is blood group A but actually he is having A and O; because O is recessive trait the gene express the A trait instead, making the person having blood group A.
Heterozygous trait is that in genetic expression will be different
it means that that specific trait is the only one. for example one blue eye one green eye
An organism with two different alleles for a trait? is a hybrid
A heterozygous has 2 different alleles for a trait.
it is a homozygous or heterozygous ( RR or rr)
Heterozygous
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.
The offspring would have a 50% chance of being heterozygous and showing the dominant trait and a 50% chance of being homozygous for the recessive trait.
heterozygous genotype
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'.
An organism with two different alleles for a trait? is a hybrid
A heterozygous has 2 different alleles for a trait.
A homozygous trait is controlled by only one kind of allele, while a heterozygous trait is controlled by multiple allele types.
Heterozygous means that you are carrying 1 dominant trait and 1 recessive trait.If an allelic pair has one dominant and other recessive gene it is called heterozygous.
Heterozygous means that you are carrying 1 dominant trait and 1 recessive trait.If an allelic pair has one dominant and other recessive gene it is called heterozygous.
If a heterozygous tall pea plant, Aa, is crossed with a homozygous plant, AA, for the trait, you will have a one in one in four chance of the offspring being heterozygous. You will need to create a square and plug the traits in to see what the odds are.
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
If a trait is dominant, then an organisms heterozygous (hybrid) for that trait would normally show: A) The recessive trait only B) The dominant trait only C) A blend of the recessive and dominant traits D) A phenotype unlike that of either parent B) The dominant trait only! Reason being because heterozygous means the pair of genes are different. When this occurs, only the dominant trait is expressed.
