Detailed explanation-1: -A hybrid organism is one that is heterozygous, which means that is carries two different alleles at a particular genetic position, or locus. Therefore, a dihybrid organism is one that is heterozygous at two different genetic loci.
Detailed explanation-2: -Genes come in different varieties, called alleles. Somatic cells contain two alleles for every gene, with one allele provided by each parent of an organism.
Detailed explanation-3: -Purebred-Also called HOMOZYGOUS and consists of gene pairs with genes that are the SAME. Hybrid-Also called HETEROZYGOUS and consists of gene pairs that are DIFFERENT.
