The plants ploidy is decided based on the chromosome within the nucleus . Plant can be either heterozygous or homozygous.

The major distinction between homozygous and heterozygous individuals is that the former have two identical alleles while the latter have both dominant and recessive alleles. Over several generations, kids with the same characteristic are produced through self-breeding between homozygous individuals.

Heterozygous and homozygous chromosomes are seen in human beings. Allele pairings are categorized as Heterozygous and Homozygous. A heterozygous person possesses various alleles, whereas a homozygous person carries a pair of identical (RR or rr) alleles (Rr).

Let's take the gene for hair colour as an example. This gene has two alleles, one of which is responsible for black (r), and the other for black (R). On a homologous set of chromosomes, such as RR or rr, homozygous people will carry the same colour allele, but heterozygous people will carry distinct colour alleles.

Hence, depending on type allele can be homozygous or heterozygous.

Cholesterol is a waxy like substance synthesized from two sources such as liver and from animals like meat, poultry, diary product.

There are two types of cholesterol, one is bad called LDL cholesterol and second one is good called as HDL.

LDL narrow down the arteries by depositing fats in it, the condition known as atherosclerosis which leads to increase in risk for heart attack, stroke and peripheral artery disease.
