Pseudo only mean single in some alternate universe. Pseudo-genes are often the result of gene duplication. Following duplication one of the two copies becomes non-functional, a psuedo-gene. It does not necessarily lack a promoter, so additon of a promoter does not cause it to become active. It is a false gene.

A gene without promoter. There is no transcription from the pseudo gene.It is vestigial gene but could be used when promoter is added upstream.

Pseudo doesn't mean single - it means 'false' so it is probably something that has similar action to a gene , without actually being one.

ur question itself contains its answer...pseudo means single.
so pseudo gene means a single type of gene which does not has its pair and that which cannot replicate into many more.pseudo genes have certain special characters which are dominant.

it is something that has a label stitched on it from a genuine pair of Levy's. It looks like the real thing.

it just hangs there with rest they all think that it does something but it just looks like the rest e.g the dork at school who has got a cool clothes
