Best Answer

A heterozygous organism has two different alleles for a given gene. The opposite of a heterozygous organism is a homozygous organism which has two alleles that are the same for that specific gene. Genes can exist in more than one form and the different forms are called alleles. Alleles code for different types of the same characteristic

What is heterzygous in genes?

A heterozygous dominant gene is a gene that is more dominant in the gene pool but is made up of 2 diffrent traits passed from parent example: A heterzygous gene would be Tt for tall. The T stands for domintant trait as being tall and the t stands for the recessive trait short. All heterzygous means is that it is made up with 1 captial letter and 1 lowercase letter.
