A heterozygote will show both phenotypes. For example, a tortoiseshell colored cat is heterozygous for black and orange coat color and it has both black and orange hairs in its coat. Refer to the following link for an illustration:

What is the difference of a homozygote and a heterozygote?

A homozygote carries two identical alleles for a particular gene, while a heterozygote carries two different alleles for the same gene. Homozygotes produce only one type of gamete, while heterozygotes can produce two different types of gametes.


What is codominant genotype?

When two alleles are codominant, that means that they are expressed simultaneously in different parts. For example, if a red and white flower were crossed, and the resulting flower had some red petals and some white petals that would be codominance. Another example is when animals have stripes and spots. Not to be confused in incomplete dominance, which is when two alleles are expressed simultaneously in the same part of the organism (in the flower example all the petals would be pink).


An organism is called a homozygote if it carries two different alleles?

If both alleles are the same, the organism is homozygous for the trait. ... If one allele is missing, it is hemizygous, and if both alleles are missing, ... An organism is heterozygous


What has two identical alleles for a trait?

Homozygous individuals have two identical alleles for a specific trait. This means they can be either homozygous dominant (two dominant alleles) or homozygous recessive (two recessive alleles). Homozygosity results in the expression of either the dominant or recessive trait.


Term for a genotype in which there are two recessive alleles?

A genotype consisting of two different alleles is a heterozygote.


Traits produced by two or more genes are codominant?

yes but the mans genes are shown more in the child is that your question cause i might be totaly wrong. ---- Genes from each parent show equally and codominant alleles produces a interleaved pattern rather than a blended pattern like incomplete dominance genes.


Define the terms homozygote and heterozygote?

Homozygote: (genetics) an organism having two identical alleles of a particular gene and so breeding true for the particular characteristic. Heterozygote:(genetics) an organism having two different alleles of a particular gene and so giving rise to varying offspring.
