If two organisms are dominant for a specific trait and produce an offspring that is recessive for that particular trait, what conclusions can be reached about the genotypes of the parent organisms?

There are three genotypes.

  • Homozygous - Having two dominant genes.
  • Heterozygous - Having one dominant gene and one recessive gene.
  • Homozygous - Having two recessive genes.

If two organisms are dominant for a specific trait and produce an offspring that is recessive for that particular trait, the parent organisms have a heterozygous genotype.
