Summary
| Description |
English: In diploid organisms like humans, one homologous chromosome is inherited from each parent. The equivalent genes from the two parents can confer the same trait. This is called “homozygous.” However, the two inherited genes can be functionally non-identical and produce distinct traits. This is called “heterozygous.” See also “allele” and “dominant-recessive.” |
