Homozygous means they are animal genes and heterozygous means they are plant genes.
|
|
|
Homozygous means that it has only one gene.
|
|
|
Homozygous genes have two identical genes, while heterozygous genes are two different genes.
|
|
|
None of the above.

Detailed explanation-1: -We all have two alleles, or versions, of each gene. Being homozygous for a particular gene means you inherited two identical versions. It’s the opposite of a heterozygous genotype, where the alleles are different. People who have recessive traits, like blue eyes or red hair, are always homozygous for that gene.
Detailed explanation-2: -The presence of two identical alleles at a particular gene locus. A homozygous genotype may include two normal alleles or two alleles that have the same variant.
Detailed explanation-3: -Homozygous: individual carries two alleles that are the same for a particular gene; heterozygous: individual carries two different alleles for a particular gene. Genotype: the alleles carried by an individual for one or more particular genes; phenotype: outward expression of the genotype.
Detailed explanation-4: -Homozygous Homozygous, as related to genetics, refers to having inherited the same versions (alleles) of a genomic marker from each biological parent. Thus, an individual who is homozygous for a genomic marker has two identical versions of that marker.
Detailed explanation-5: -An organism can be homozygous dominant, if it carries two copies of the same dominant allele, or homozygous recessive, if it carries two copies of the same recessive allele. Heterozygous means that an organism has two different alleles of a gene.
