LIFE SCIENCE

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -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-3: -Flexi Says: If both the parents are homozygous recessive for a trait then they can contribute only recessive allele and all their offspring will have the same recessive trait.

Detailed explanation-4: -When an organism has two of the same alleles for a specific gene, it is homozygous (homo means “same") for that gene. An organism can be either homozygous dominant (TT) or homozygous recessive (tt). If an organism has two different alleles (Tt) for a certain gene, it is known as heterozygous (hetero means different).
