offspring of many generations that have same trait. Synonym is True breed or homozygous.
A
Purebred
B
Selective bred
C
Hybrid
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In Mendelian genetics, this means that an organism must be homozygous for every trait for which it is considered true breeding; that is, the pairs of alleles that express a given trait are the same. In a purebred strain or breed, the goal is that the organism will “breed true” for the breed-relevant traits.

Detailed explanation-2: -A purebred refers to offspring resulting from a true breeding. True breeding is a way to produce offspring that would carry the same phenotype as the parents. Thus, a purebred would result when the parents are homozygous for certain traits.
