Answered by admin @



Answer:

Heterozygous

Explanation:

An organism is said to be heterozygous when he has two different alleles of the same trait. A homozygous individual have the two same alleles for a given trait. For example, height is a trait which has two alleles that are T and t.

So in heterozygous individuals, two different alleles will be present which is Tt and in homozygous individual two same allele of height will be present that can be TT or tt.  

In heterozygous condition normally one allele will be dominant and another allele will be recessive and in homozygous condition normally both the allele will be dominant or recessive. Therefore heterozygous is the organism that has two different alleles for the same trait.
