Question

10/31 another term for homozygous is hybrid dominant purebred recessive

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we recall genetic terminology:

  • "Hybrid" refers to heterozygous (different alleles), so it's incorrect.
  • "Dominant" describes an allele's expression, not a genotype type, so incorrect.
  • "Purebred" (or pure - breeding) organisms have two identical alleles for a trait, which is the definition of homozygous.
  • "Recessive" is an allele type, not a genotype descriptor for homozygous.

Answer:

C. Purebred
