Fluorite can scratch a copper coin but cannot be scratched by a copper coin. This is because according to Mohs scale of hardness, fluorite has a hardness of four. Copper has a hardness of three. Therefore fluorite is a harder mineral than copper and will scratch copper but it will not be scratched by copper. Mohs based his scale on the fact that some minerals could scratch others. If one mineral could scratch another but could not be scratched by it, he reasoned that it must be harder.

An alleles is dominant is heterozygote when it is
Fittoniya [83]

An allele is dominant and heterzygote (Pp) when a dominant allele (P) is crossed with a recessive allele (p).

Explanation:

A dominant allele is the one with a particular dominant character or phenotype which dominates even though there are other alleles found.  

A heterozygous allele results from two different alleles coding for a gene.

A heterozygous dominant allele (Pp) results from the crossing of a dominant allele (P) with a recessive allele due to complete masking of the recessive allele (p).

For example, when dominant brown eyes are crossed with recessive blue eyes, in a heterozygous dominant allele results in brown eyes and masks the recessive blue eyes.
