Genotype means the particular alleles an individual has alleles are just a kind of gene and a gene is a section of DNA which codes for a particular protein or characteristic in an organism.

Heterozygous is when a person has 2 alleles for the same characteristic like hair you could have the allele for both blonde or brown hair but due to the blonde one being recessive (ie not as powerfull/strong), you would not know.

So, an example would be WBWb: B = Brown b = blonde W= allele so for hair a heterozygous person would have the genotype WBWb.
