Genes present in an organism (usually abbreviated as two letter).

How the trait physically shows-up in the organism.

Inherited unchanged in a hybridization.

The genotypic interaction of alleles in producing the phenotype of the heterozygote.

A genetic condition where an individual inherits the same alleles for a particular gene from both parents.

It carries two copies of the same recessive allele.

The term “heterozygous” also refers to a pair of alleles. Unlike homozygous, being heterozygous means you
have two different alleles.

Pair of alleles. Unlike homozygous, being heterozygous means you have two different alleles. You inherited
a different version from each parent. In a heterozygous genotype, the dominant allele overrules the
recessive one. Therefore, the dominant trait will be expressed.

Is the hybrid of two individuals with homozygous genotypes that results in the opposite phenotype for a
certain genetic trait.

A dihybrid cross describes a mating experiment between two organisms that are identically hybrid for
two traits. A hybrid organism is one that is heterozygous, which identically hybrid for two traits. A
hybrid is one that is heterozygous, which means that is carries two different alleles at a particular
genetic position, or locus.
