Question

29/31 another term for homozygous is dominant hybrid recessive purebred

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we recall genetic terminology: Homozygous organisms have two identical alleles for a trait. "Purebred" (or pure - breeding) individuals are homozygous, as they pass down the same allele for a trait. "Dominant" and "Recessive" refer to allele types, not the same as homozygous. "Hybrid" refers to heterozygous (having two different alleles). So the term synonymous with homozygous is Purebred.

Answer:

D. Purebred
