If an organism produces two different alleles for a gene, that organism is ___________ with respect to that gene.

Question 13 options:

dioecious

homozygous

haploid

heterozygous

diallelic

Solution

Dioecious - dioecious species has the different male and female reproductive structures.

Homozygous - Homozygous species are those ones having identical pair of genes for a given pair.

Haploid - haploid cell contain only one complete set of chromosomes.

Heterozygous - They carry dissimilar alleles, different genotype and having both dominant and recessive alleles.

Diallellic- It is applied to those where two different alleles are present at particular gene.

Hence most perfect answer for above question is DIALLELLIC.
