Brief Explanations

The problem is about genetics, which falls under Biology (a subfield of Natural Science). First, for the blank about why a homozygous genotype can show dominant or recessive: a homozygous genotype has both alleles the same (since "homo-" means same). Then, a homozygous dominant genotype has two dominant alleles (e.g., AA), and homozygous recessive has two recessive alleles (e.g., aa).

Answer:

s (filling the blanks):

  1. The first blank (why homozygous can show dom/recess): "the same" (because homozygous means alleles are identical).
  2. Example of homozygous dominant: AA (or any two dominant alleles, e.g., TT for tall in pea plants).
  3. Example of homozygous recessive: aa (or any two recessive alleles, e.g., tt for short in pea plants).
