Understand the meaning of homozygous and heterozygous: Homozygous means having two identical alleles for a particular gene, while heterozygous means having two different alleles.
Identify the alleles given: 'A' is the dominant allele and 'a' is the recessive allele.
List the possible genotypes: AA, Aa, and aa.
Determine which genotype is homozygous dominant: Since 'A' is dominant, the homozygous dominant genotype must have two 'A' alleles, which is 'AA'.
Confirm that 'aa' is homozygous recessive and 'Aa' is heterozygous, so neither is homozygous dominant.
