Which of the following genotypes represents a homozygous recessive trait?

A. eE

D. Ee

The correct option is B. ee

Explanation:

A homozygous trait can be described as a trait in which both the alleles of a gene are the same whereas, a heterozygous trait can be described as a trait in which both the alleles of a gene are different.

A recessive trait can be described as the trait which gets suppressed and will only be seen if both the alleles of a gene are recessive. A dominant allele masks the effect of a recessive allele.
