It sounds like you are referring to homozygous vs heterozygous. If an organism has two identical alleles of the same gene, it is said to be homozygous. If an organism has two different alleles of the same gene, it is said to be heterozygous.
If a homozygous organism has two identical dominantalleles, it is said to be homozygous dominant, while an organism with two identical recessive alleles is said to be homozygous recessive.
If this was not what you're asking, please clarify your question on the discussion page so someone can Terms_that_describe_two_alleles_of_the_same_genethis answer.

∙ 13y agoTheoretically, each trait has at least two alleles, one inherited maternally, and one inherited paternally. If the two alleles are different then the individual is termed heterozygous. If the two alleles are the same, the individual is termed homozygous for that trait.
If more than one set of alleles determines the trait then you are talking about gene interactions, which there can be quite a few different types of interactions.

This describes the organism or trait that has two different alleles for the same trait?
Heterozygous
Two alleles for a certain trait are passed to an individual. what terms refers to the trait that will show up in the individual?
Dominant
When an individual have two identical alleles for the same trait it is called?
Having two similar alleles for a trait is called being homozygous. It is possible to be homozygous for a dominant or recessive trait.
What oranism has two different alleles for a trait?
An organism that possesses two different alleles for a trait is said to be heterozygous for that trait.
If two alleles have incomplete dominance what will the resulting phenotype be for an individual who carries one copy of each allele?
the individual will show a mixture of these two trait.
How many alleles for one trait are normally found in the genotype of an organism?
An organism has two alleles for one trait. If the two alleles are the same, the individual is homozygous for that trait, and if they are different, the individual is heterozygous.
What describes an organism that has two alleles for a trait?
Heterozygous
This describes the organism or trait that has two different alleles for the same trait?
Heterozygous
How many alleles for one trait can an individual have?
Genotypes consist of two alleles for every trait. You inherit one allele from one parent, and another from the other parent.

Two alleles for a certain trait are passed to an individual. what terms refers to the trait that will show up in the individual?
Dominant
When an individual have two identical alleles for the same trait it is called?
Having two similar alleles for a trait is called being homozygous. It is possible to be homozygous for a dominant or recessive trait.
If an individual has two ressesive alleles for the same trait the individual is said to be what?
Homozygous recessive
When a trait has more then two alleles and how is that trait inherited?
Even though there are more than two alleles, an individual can inherit only two, one from the mother and one from the father.
Compare homozygous alleles to heterozygous alleles?
When the alleles are identical, the individual is homozygous for that trait. While if the pair is made of two different alleles.
Organisms with two different alleles for a trait?
The organism that has two different alleles for the same trait is called heterozygous. This also refers to a cell or an individual that has two different forms of gene.
What does it mean if there is two different alleles for a trait?
The trait could show up in two different forms. Alleles are individual units that determine what trait will be expressed in an offspring. Alleles exist for most traits such as hair color or wing size. Having two alleles simply means that the trait can be expressed in different variation. One trait can have several different alleles.
