NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -For example, in common life, let’s say a horse is a purebred quarter. That means it is homozygous for all traits that quarter horses should have.

Detailed explanation-2: -With eye color, for instance, “B” stands for a brown allele and “b” stands for a blue allele. An organism with two dominant alleles for a trait is said to have a homozygous dominant genotype. Using the eye color example, this genotype is written BB.

Detailed explanation-3: -The GG, Gg, and gg above are known as genotypes. They denote the specific genes for that trait. The colors, yellow and green, are known as the phenotype, or the physical appearance of that genotype.

Detailed explanation-4: -Since the plant with the green pods is heterozygous for the trait, its genotype must be Gg. The problem does not state whether the plant with yellow pods is homozygous or heterozygous.
