Best Answer

Homozygous is the term used to describe an individual that has two of the same alleles. This term can be used for either dominant or recessive (both BB and bb are homozygous).

Therefore you would probably call them a homozygous dominant individual.

For each trait there are allele possibilities?

Yes, that is correct. Each trait is controlled by genes, and genes exist in different forms called alleles. For any given trait, an individual can have two allelesβ€”one inherited from their mother and one from their father. These alleles can have different variations, resulting in different expression of the trait.
