Being heterozygous refers to having two different alleles for a particular gene. This term is not specific to any particular gender; it can apply to both males and females.

The abbreviation for heterozygous is "HET."
The heterozygous genotype
Heterozygous
A female with a heterozygous sex-linked trait typically has one dominant allele and one recessive allele for that trait. Since sex-linked traits are often associated with the X chromosome, the allele combination would be represented as XᴴXʰ, where Xᴴ is the X chromosome carrying the dominant allele and Xʰ is the X chromosome carrying the recessive allele. This combination indicates that the female expresses the dominant trait but is a carrier of the recessive trait.
When a female is heterozygous i.e. she possess one allele of disease , she is called carrier .

Yes, because Hemophilia is recessive (if you have a normal allele, you won't have hemophilia, and heterozygous means that you have one normal and one abnormal allele).
Color blindness is typically inherited as an X-linked recessive trait. A colorblind female must have two copies of the colorblind allele (one from each parent), meaning she must inherit the allele from both her mother and father. In this scenario, the normal male (with a normal X chromosome) can only pass on a normal X chromosome to his daughters, while the heterozygous female has one normal X and one colorblind X, meaning she can pass on either allele. Therefore, the combination of a normal male and a heterozygous female cannot produce a colorblind daughter.
That is the correct spelling of "heterozygous" (having variant alleles).

The synonym for heterozygous is hybrid.
an organism that has two different alleles for a trait is heterozygous
Heterozygous means inheriting different genes from your parents. That is a heterozygous trait, not a homozygous one.
