Dear Dave, while technically correct, this is confusing and could be stated better if you expect this to be helpful for newbies. They are going to need to know what a het is way before they understand what a gene pair is or even that genes come in pairs. Maybe you could avoid this is you defined gene first? Maybe you could solve it some other ways too.
"...Het = heterozygous = having two different genes within a gene pair. Most commonly one normal and one mutant but could be two different mutant genes..."
