What is the difference between a homozygous trait and a heterozygous trait and can you please provide an example for each
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/11
a homozygous trait is when an offspring has either both dominant
genes or both recessive genes from its parents. a heterozygous
trait is when an offspring has both dominant and recessive genes.
for example: a long-tailed cat is dominant and a short-tailed cat
is recessive. the long-tailed cat (homozygous dominant) had
offsprings with the short-tailed cat (homozygous recessive). by
doing the punnett square, 100% of their offspring will be
heterozygous.

How are meiosis and mitosis different
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/11
mitosis only has to do with celluar reproduction
meiosis has to do with sex cells reproducing Mitosis creates new cells that are used for development, repair, asexual reproduction and growth. Meiosis creates cells in order for organisms to reproduce sexually.
