Iron overload: too much iron absorption in the gut which leads to accumulation of iron in the other organs mainly the liver, heart, and pancreas

A particular genetic constitution

The observable characteristics of your genotype

Equal Segregation -  Traits are inherited via factors (genes) that are divided equally among the gametes and are brought together during fertilization in the next generation (factors come in different varieties = alleles)

Independent Assortment - The factors (genes) are segregated independently of each other (by chance) to the gametes

Half is not enough. Loss of one allele maybe due to a mutation

Having only a single copy of a gene from one or the other parent

Homologous chromosomes

Sister chromatids
