a heterozygous gene is a gene with a genotype with two different letters. For example, Hh rather then hh, HH (which are homozygous). Hope this helps. =)
A gene that shows no impact on a trait in a heterozygous state is called a recessive gene. In a heterozygous individual, the dominant gene will determine the trait expressed, while the recessive gene remains hidden.
They are considered to be heterozygous not heterosexual!

Being heterozygous.
Being heterozygous for a gene means having two different alleles at a particular gene locus. One allele is dominant and the other is recessive. This can result in a combination of traits expressed in an individual.

Everyone is heterozygous at many genetic loci. It means the gene you got from your mother is different from the gene you got from your father. Since you got one chromosome (one gene) from each parent, there's a reasonable chance you'l be heterozygous in genes where there are different genes in the population. Depending on the gene, heterozygous can be an advantage - a "good" gene can overcome a "bad" gene.
A gene with two different alleles is called a heterozygous gene. This means that an individual has inherited two different versions of the gene, one from each parent.
Heterozygous means that you are carrying 1 dominant trait and 1 recessive trait.If an allelic pair has one dominant and other recessive gene it is called heterozygous.
"Heterozygous" is not a disease. It is a term to describe the presence of two alternate alleles in a gene sequence.
