Answer

Carriers of a disease are **heterozygotes for the gene that can cause the disease**. They carry one copy of the normal gene and one copy of the disease-causing gene. They may not exhibit symptoms of the disease themselves, but they can pass the disease-causing gene on to their offspring.<br />
