What are examples for the word allele?

The term allele is often used interchangeably with the word gene. Allele/gene is used for the variations seen at each gene locus for a trait on the homologous chromosome pair. For example: If there are three alleles for a trait only two of the alleles will be represented in the genotype of any one individual. The alleles for basic blood types A, B and O are examples. In general the term allele is not used interchangeably with gene in conjunction with the terms locus or loci..therefore Gene locus or gene loci but not allele locus or allele loci.

The term is homozygous.This means that the alleles of a particular gene, at a particular locus on a specific chromosome, are the same.


What does it mean to be pure for a trait?

Being pure for a trait means that an individual carries only one form of the gene that determines that trait. This makes the individual homozygous for that trait and guarantees that the offspring will inherit that specific form of the gene.
