Does heterozygous mean you are a carrier?
Heterozygous individuals are often called carriers of a trait because they have one dominant allele and one recessive allele that is hidden, so they carry it without it showing up. Alleles are the two forms of a gene that we inherit from our parents, one from each parent.
