Two recessive alleles (homozygous) will result in the recessive trait being expressed as a phenotype.
The two terms for having matching alleles for a certain trait are "homozygous dominant" (two dominant alleles) and "homozygous recessive" (two recessive alleles).
The term used to describe when a genotype consists of either two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles is "homozygous." When an organism has two identical alleles for a trait, it is homozygous dominant (for two dominant alleles) or homozygous recessive (for two recessive alleles). In contrast, if the alleles are different, the organism is referred to as "heterozygous."
A gene with one completely dominant allele and two recessive alleles can produce two different traits. The dominant allele will express its trait regardless of whether it is paired with another dominant or a recessive allele, while the two recessive alleles will express their trait only when paired together. Therefore, the possible combinations of alleles result in one dominant trait and one recessive trait.
No, a phenotype refers to the observable traits or characteristics of an individual, which result from the interaction of its genotype (the genetic makeup, including both dominant and recessive alleles) with the environment. Recessive alleles can influence phenotype, but they do so only when two copies are present, as their effects are masked by dominant alleles. Therefore, a phenotype encompasses all expressed traits, not just those linked to recessive alleles.

A gene pair that consists of 2 dominant or 2 recessive alleles is considered homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive.
Homozygenous recessive.
Alleles are different versions of a gene that can code for different traits. The two forms of alleles are dominant and recessive. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles when present together in an individual's genotype.
No, a phenotype refers to the observable traits or characteristics of an individual, which result from the interaction of its genotype (the genetic makeup, including both dominant and recessive alleles) with the environment. Recessive alleles can influence phenotype, but they do so only when two copies are present, as their effects are masked by dominant alleles. Therefore, a phenotype encompasses all expressed traits, not just those linked to recessive alleles.
When two recessive alleles are inherited, the trait associated with those alleles is observed because there is no dominant allele to mask its expression. This results in the individual displaying the recessive trait.
A genotype consisting of two different alleles is a heterozygote.
False. Pea plants can have short stems if they have two recessive alleles for short stems, but they can also have short stems if they have a combination of dominant and recessive alleles that result in a short stature.
A gene pair that consists of a dominant allele and a recessive allele is called a heterozygous gene. A homozygous gene, meanwhile, is a gene pair consisting of two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles.
A trait produced from two alleles that are alike is called homozygous. Homozygous alleles are identical forms of a gene and can be either dominant or recessive. Homozygous dominant means having two dominant alleles, while homozygous recessive means having two recessive alleles for a particular trait.
