I don't really know the answer to that question. Maybe you should ask someone smarter... Like a doctor. Because the internet thinks it knows everything but i have been looking for thirty minutes trying to find an answer to this... "When a pair of chromosomes contains different alleles for a trait, that trait is called a(n) _____?" and i just cannot find the answer... but! if anyone knows the answer to this tell me and i will go back to trusting the internet!
Thank you,

What are is an observable characteristic that is expressed as a result of an allele pair?
An observable characteristic that is expressed as a result of an allele pair is called a trait. Traits can be physical features (such as eye color or height) or functional characteristics (such as blood type or enzyme production) that are influenced by the interaction of alleles in the individual's genotype.
When the alleles of a gene pair are different they are said to be what?
They are considered to be heterozygous not heterosexual!
What is the gene pair consit of dominant alleles or to two recessive alleles?
homozygous
What is the minimum number of different alleles an individual can have of a certain characteristic?
An individual can have a minimum of two different alleles for a certain characteristic, with one allele inherited from each parent.
What happens when both alleles of a gene pair independently express in a heterozygote?
Then a combination of the two visual forms of the alleles (meaning any visual things the alleles cause get combined) is formed. Either that, or one pair dominates the other, and the new person becomes a carrier of the dominated pair.
Condition where the pair of alleles for a characteristic are the same?
homozygous
What does homozygons mean?
A pair of identical alleles controlling the same characteristic.
What term describes a pair of alleles that are the same?
Alleles that are the same = homozygous Alleles that are different = heterozygous
Having a pair of alleles the same is called?
A pair of alleles which are the same are said to be homozygous.
What do geneticists call alleles that are both expressed in the phenotype when they are together?
Genetic makeup formed from both inherited alleles together is called a genotype. Homozygous alleles would be a pair of identical alleles for a single trait. Heterozygous is different alleles for a single trait.
What is a characteristic that has more than one pair of possible traits?
Eye color is a characteristic that has more than one pair of possible traits. For example, possible eye colors include brown, blue, green, and hazel, each represented by different combinations of alleles.

What is the gene pair consit of dominant alleles or to two recessive alleles?
homozygous
On this pair of chromosomes, what alleles are linked?
On this pair of chromosomes, the linked alleles are those that are physically close together and tend to be inherited together.
What is allelic pair?
a combination of two alleles which comprise the gene pair
What is the relationship between pair of alleles in genetic inheritance?
In genetic inheritance, a pair of alleles refers to the two forms of a gene that an individual inherits from their parents. These alleles can be either the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous). The relationship between a pair of alleles determines how they interact to determine the traits or characteristics of an individual. This interaction is known as Mendelian genetics, where dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles.
