Homozygous is alleles which are the same, A way I remember it is Homozygous "Homo" which is know as the same so its hhtt or HHTT, heterozygous is when the alleles are different like tTHh, It is not found anywhere, it is terms to describe genotypes.

Because, without them, the dead animal will just sit there. So, having decomposers gets rid of the remains of the animal, and that way they can eat too. Hope it helps good luck!

Punnett Squares are used by geneticists to determine the likely genotypes of the offspring of two parents.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

That's correct - it's a square where on one axis, the paternal allele (allele = one of the possible forms of the same gene), and on another the maternal allele is listed. Often, it's also indicated whether an allele is recessive or dominant.

Then, in the table that results, all the possible "combinations" of allele between the paternal and maternal party are created. If you count how often a certain combination appears, it indicates the likelihood of that combination.
See the picture (though it is directly from Wikipedia, please note). The likelihood of BB is 25%, of Bb is 50%, and of bb 25%.

Biologists recognize five levels of cell organization. The lowest and simplest is the cellular level. Organisms here are either unicellular organisms, like protozoa, or colonial organisms. Colonial organisms are composed of single-celled individuals that stay together to sustain the life of the whole colony. Next on the scale of complexity is the level occupied by tissue. A tissue is a group of similar cells that perform a similar activity. Tissues that are organized around a common function together make up an organ, the third level of complexity. The fourth level of organization is the system, formed by a group of organs that together perform a specific bodily process. The fifth and highest level is the organism level, in which body systems work together in a structure capable of independent life.
