    The cross of a heterozygous fly with a homozygous fly can be shown as follows:

    r r

    R Rr Rr

    r rr rr

    The results show that there is a 50% probability that the flies produced will have red eyes. Their genotypes will be heterozygous.

    The results of the punnet square show that there will be a 50% probability that the offsprings will have brown eyes. Their genotype will be homozygous recessive.

    A homozygous trait can be described as a trait which has same alleles for the gene which encodes the trait. Heterozygous means that both the alleles for the trait will be different.
