Hi! Here is your answer and explanation (in the simplest way I could put it ;))

Answer:

1. Gg, Green body color and Ff, Four fingers

2. ee, One eye

3. CC, Clawed toes

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, here are the definitions of these words you are probably wondering about:

Heterozygous: is when both alleles are different, not the same. Like for example, in the first answer you notice how it is Upper case G and Lower case g. This means that both different traits were combined in this pair but the dominant trait allowed for him to have a green color body instead of yellow (which was the weaker trait.) The Uppercase letter will always be the winning characteristic out of the two letters.

Homozygous: is when both alleles are the same. But! The alleles are either BOTH uppercase OR lowercase depending on whether the trait is Dominant or Recessive,

Dominant will always be uppercase, for example, in the third answer the alleles were both Uppercase, CC. Where as Recessive will always be Lowercase, like the second answer, ee.

I hope this helps!! Have a great day! *\(≧▽≦)/*
