Answer:

I got you

Step-by-step explanation:

homozygous is when the letters are AA or aa NOT Aa

heterozygous is when it is Aa

The homozygous can only pass down A or a, not both. If the parent was AA, the probability of their offspring would be more likely to have a dom. phenotype is more likely. If it was aa, they are more likel to create heterozygous and recessive offspring.

The heterozygous coding is able to pass on both the recessive and dom. traits. So the offspring would be more dependent on the other parent, but most likely will have more dom. offspring.

I'm sorry I don't know a good way to explain what I mean by t h a t, but that was the best I could really do
