Genotype
Phenotype30s - Q11An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait (both dominant or both recessive)Homozygous
Hybrid
Heterozygous
30s - Q12An organism that has two different alleles for a trait (one dominant and one recessive)
Homozygous
HeterozygousPurebred
30s - Q13A pattern of inheritance in which one allele is completely dominant over another. The phenotype is dominant only
codominance
complete dominanceincomplete dominance
30s - Q14A pattern of inheritance in which two alleles are neither dominant nor recessive. The resulting phenotype is a blending of the parental traits.
