Carrier

Carrier explained in an easy to understand way:

Carrier Simple Definition
Carrier Definition

Imagine you're trying to watch your favorite TV show, but the signal is weak, causing the picture to be fuzzy. This is similar to being a carrier of a genetic trait, where you have one recessive allele that doesn't fully express itself unless paired with another recessive allele. Just like how the weak signal doesn't affect your ability to watch if there's enough strength from the antenna or cable, a single recessive allele remains hidden and doesn't affect the individual's traits unless paired with another recessive allele.
