Gradebook PrintCalculatorPeriodic Table Question 6 of 22 Sapling Learning Diploid organisms, such as humans and other mammals, have two copies of their genetic material in the form of homologous chromosomes. One copy of each chromosome is passed to the anism from each of its parents during the organism is said to be either homozygous or heterozygous at a pa ts parents passed down two of the same or two different alleles for that specific sequence. Which of the following describes a heterozygous locus? s of fertilization. For many genetic traits, a diploid depending on whether the alleles at a particular position on homologous chromosomes of an l with two true-breeding parents for different alleles two alleles that are positioned on the same chromosome the alleles at a particular position on homologous chromosomes of an individual who expresses a recessive trait two different alleles are found in a particular position on homologous chromosomes the presence of two or more alleles for a particular trait in the gene pool

Explanation / Answer

Correct answer:- (A) The alleles at a particular position on homologous chromosomes of an individual with two true breeding parents for different alleles.

Explanation:-

Heterozygous locus:- diploid organism is heterozygous at a gene locus when its cells contain two different alleles of a gene.
