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. =)

What is the form of gene that seems to have no impact on a trait in a heterozygous state?

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.


When the alleles of a gene pair are different they are said to be what?

They are considered to be heterozygous not heterosexual!


A gene that is not expressed in the heterozygous condition is called?

A recessive gene.

What does it mean to be heterozygous for a gene?

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.


When alleles of a gene are different what is the individual?

Is being heterozygous a serious medical issue?

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.


What term defines a gene made up of two diffrent alleles?

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.


What heterozygous mean?

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.


If you have heterozygous what are the signs?

"Heterozygous" is not a disease. It is a term to describe the presence of two alternate alleles in a gene sequence.
