Homologous Chromosomes Heterozygous = Homozygous = hetero + zygote homo + zygote Haploid = Diploid = one copy of each chromosome two copies of each chromosome Practice Question The idea that the inheritance of one gene does not influence the inheritance of another gene is Mendel's principle of _________________.
