Answer:

Heterozygous-

Having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes.Heterozygous refers to having inherited different forms of a particular gene from each parent. A heterozygous genotype stands in contrast to a homozygous genotype, where an individual inherits identical forms of a particular gene from each parent.

Explanation:

If the two versions are different, you have a heterozygous genotype for that gene.

For example,

being heterozygous for hair color could mean you have one allele for red hair and one allele for brown hair. The relationship between the two alleles affects which traits are expressed.
