Explain how an individual can be a carrier for a particulare diseas and yet not have the diseas.is this?

This is possible because in each chromosome, you have two alleles, one dominant and one recessive. Also genotype is both alleles just listed like Pp, but phenotype is the characteristic. You could have the same phenotype for PP and Pp because they are both dominant. Hoped this helped.
