Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -To determine the fraction of the offspring homozygous for both traits, first determine the genotype of an offspring homozygous for both traits. It would be aabb.
Detailed explanation-2: -The term “homozygous” is used to describe the pairs “AA” and “aa” because the alleles in the pair are the same, i.e. both dominant or both recessive. In contrast, the term “heterozygous” is used to describe the allelic pair, “Aa”.
