Homozygous. ( generally )
When an allele creates a visible trait, it is called a dominant allele. Dominant alleles mask the expression of recessive alleles when present in a heterozygous individual.
It depends which one is the dominant gene, and which is recessive. Dominant always over rules recessive. I probably spelled recessive wrong so yeah... :P
A recessive gene is one that is only expressed if an individual has two copies of that gene. This means that the trait associated with the recessive gene is not visible unless an individual inherits two copies, one from each parent. If an individual inherits only one copy of a recessive gene, the dominant gene will be expressed instead.
Recessive traits were visible in the F2 generation of Mendel's experiments, where the offspring of the F1 generation showed a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive traits.
When there is only one recessive allele present for a characteristic, the dominant allele will be expressed in the phenotype. The individual will exhibit the trait associated with the dominant allele, while still carrying the recessive allele in their genetic makeup.
if the ratio had more recessive traits, like if you made a punnit square and you saw that there were more of the recessive traits (BB bb bb bb) then you know that the most common trait is the recessive one "bb" (considered as homozygous recessive ( i think))
traits are the phenotypic and genotypic characters which may or may not be visible in individual but present as a particular genetic code in each organism.
A trait that appears only when both alleles are present is called a recessive trait. In this case, the trait is masked when the dominant allele is present, but becomes visible when two copies of the recessive allele are inherited.

Only if the generations before were homozygous recessive as well. When doing the punnett square and you see there is a chance of having a heterozygous trait then that specie is not a purebred. The organism's offsprings must have the same physical traits.
When there is only one recessive allele present for a characteristic, the dominant allele will be expressed in the phenotype. The individual will exhibit the trait associated with the dominant allele, while still carrying the recessive allele in their genetic makeup.
You wouldn't see a recessive trait if an individual has one dominant and one recessive allele for that trait. In this case, the dominant allele's phenotype will be expressed, masking the recessive trait. The recessive trait would only be visible if an individual has two copies of the recessive allele.
