homozygous dominant means two alleles that are the same that are capital letters, heterozygous recessive means that to alleles are different BUT the same letters in lower case. (alleles for gender) EX: TT, Tt is homozygous dominant tt, tt is heterozgous recessive
You get one homozygous dominant (TT), one homozygous recessive (tt), and two heterozygous (Tt).
Homozygous means "same" so a homozygous recessive trait would be a same [with parents] trait that is not the stronger trait which is dominant. Dominant is stronger showing trait, recessive is weaker trait. If you are dealing with Punnett squares then tt is homozygous recessive and TT is homozygous dominant. Hope this helped...
The offspring will have a 25% chance of being TT (homozygous dominant), a 50% chance of being Tt (heterozygous), and a 25% chance of being tt (homozygous recessive). This follows Mendel's law of segregation where alleles for a trait separate during gamete formation.
The genotype of the individual is homozygous for the trait in question.
homozygous- TT; heterozygous- Tt :)
A homozygous trait is expressed when 2 of the same alleles make up the genotype. For example, if two alleles (A and a) were present, the homozygous trait would be either AA or aa. In general, a fully recessive trait is only expressed when it's homozygous.
When two alleles differ from each other, such as Tt, it is called heterozygous, hetero meaning different. When alleles are the same (TT) it is called homozygous, homo meaning same.

a homozygous trait is when an offspring has either both dominant genes or both recessive genes from its parents. a heterozygous trait is when an offspring has both dominant and recessive genes. for example: a long-tailed cat is dominant and a short-tailed cat is recessive. the long-tailed cat (homozygous dominant) had offsprings with the short-tailed cat (homozygous recessive). by doing the punnett square, 100% of their offspring will be heterozygous.
homozygous
The second allele. If a plant is heterozygous tall, it is Tt. In this case, the dominant trait is tall, T and recessive is short, t. There are two options for it to be dominant, heterozygous (Tt) or homozygous (TT)

When you have two identical alleles you are said to be homozygous for that particular trait. If the trait is dominant, then you are homozygous dominant. If the trait is recessive, then you are homozygous recessive.
The offspring will have a 25% chance of being TT (homozygous dominant), a 50% chance of being Tt (heterozygous), and a 25% chance of being tt (homozygous recessive). This follows Mendel's law of segregation where alleles for a trait separate during gamete formation.
It depends. If it's a heterozygous cross, (Tt x Tt), there's a 25% chance. If it's a homozygous dominant cross (TT x TT), the chance is 0%. Neither parent has the alleles for a recessive trait, so none of their offspring can have the recessive trait. If it's a homozygous recessive cross (tt x tt), there's a 100% chance. The only alleles the parents can pass on are recessive.
