Chromosomes that look alike and carry genes for the same trait are called homologous chromosomes. The nucleus contains these chromosomes.
A pair of similar chromosomes with the same genes in the same locations is known as homologous chromosomes. Homologous chromosomes are inherited from each parent and play a crucial role in genetic variation and inheritance.

for the same traits, one from each parent. They have the same genes but may have different versions of those genes, known as alleles. Homologous chromosomes are important for genetic diversity and are involved in the process of crossing over during meiosis.
Chromosomes that look alike and carry genes for the same trait are called homologous chromosomes. The nucleus contains these chromosomes.
It is Homologous chromosomes because they carry thesame genes and homones.
Homozygous.
If two genes are located on homologous chromosomes and affect the same trait, they are considered to be alleles of each other. Alleles are different versions of a gene that can produce variations in a specific trait. Inheritance of these alleles can result in different expressions of the trait through dominant or recessive interactions.
A dominant trait is expressed when two different genes for the same trait are present.
The law of independent assortment applies when genes for different traits are located on different chromosomes or are far apart on the same chromosome. This means that the inheritance of one trait does not affect the inheritance of another trait. This law was discovered by Gregor Mendel in his experiments with pea plants.
Chromosomes that contain genes for the same characteristics are called homologous chromosomes. They carry similar genetic information, one inherited from each parent, and play a key role in genetic inheritance and variation. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes undergo recombination, contributing to genetic diversity.
Homologous Chromosomes
Homologous chromosomes contain the same genes in the same location. They are pairs of chromosomesβone inherited from each parentβthat carry the same gene sequence. Homologous chromosomes are essential for genetic diversity and inheritance.
The question should be "If two alleles for a gene are the same, what phenotype will the organism have?" Answer: If the two alleles are for the dominant phenotype, the organism will exhibit the dominant phenotype. If the two alleles are for the recessive phenotype, the organism will have the recessive phenotype.
Genes are contained in chromosomes - therefore they are inherited together.
