Thank you very much for the explanation, It is very understandable but the definition of "heterozygous" that I am using according to a dictionary is creating confusion for me Can you explain that how ''heterozygous'' means that each of them[parents] have one allele for the disease ? heterozygous containing a dissimilar pair of genes for any hereditary characteristic heterozygote an individual having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes, and so giving rise to varying offspring I have never been a medical student so kindly pardon my ignorance at this |

MOHSIN the definition which u have read from dictionary is right but while solving such problems related to GENETICS we have to do the TEST CROSS which gives us probability or ratio of certain trait in next generation.

Aphelion and Perihelion are the terms referring to the orbits around the sun This is also clear in the wikipedia article you have linked as reference (Para 3, Sentence 2) !!

the word normal indicates that clinically the patient is not having the disease but on the other hand its genotype is not completely ''normal'' so it becomes Tt its opposite situation will be '' homozygous normal'' meaning that the patient like in the above condition is clinically disease free and in addition both the alleles are normal or ''T'' so the genotype will be TT so it follows that heterozygous normal '' Tt "" no diseaes clinically,,although one disease allele is present "" t "' homozygous normal '' TT '' no disease clinically,, and both alleles are ''normal'' words normal and diseased have been used in place of dominant and recessive for easy understanding

expression of a gene is called showing up of its character in progeny. codominant means neither of two genes get expressed rather a different color than orginal shows up. as far as cofusing part of your proposition is concerned ie "containing a dissimilar pair of genes for any hereditary characteristic " it is confusing because the gene is differnt and not different at the same time. not different in a sense that both genes stand for 'same character' and diffrnt in a sense that each has differnt 'say' on the same character. for color of eyes, one gene can be black coloring, the other may be blue. so they are dissimilar for the same trait. about second part 'homozygote' part this difference is present in sex chromosomes. female contributes her 'x' chromosome ,while a male contributes either 'x' or 'y' . here xx are similar for the character, anc xy are dissimlar for the character. well, the character here is 'determination of sex' ie is it gonna be female or male respectively. i hope its pretty much clear. i m student of mbbs. i have read these concepts when i did my intermediates. Thanks for posing this question. pray for my success bro. regards
