help me plz!!

OpenStudy (yolo_king):

Hertiability is what its called. Because of each individual's unique genes, they would each have distinctly different traits. Certain traits were transferred through DNA to each member of the family for generations and generations.. each family has their own distinct traits, so each individual in the population would have their own unique trait.

Use your observation skills to find two examples of traits that you have inherited. light brown hair and hazel eyes. this is part b. can u help??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my dad has dark brown hair and same eyes as me. mom has dark hair and dark eyes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do u think?

OpenStudy (yolo_king):

IF they both have dark brown eyes then it is like 90% a possibility you will have dark brown eyes, on the other hand maybe an ancestor could have had a bit of a change in genetics lets say blue eyes so it would be probably about 1% possibility you would have gotten blue eyes.

OpenStudy (yolo_king):

Although when it come to hair even though your parents might have dark black hair it can still be a wide possibility that you get brown hair. So it would be like a 50/50 chance of getting brown or black hair.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes and the hair?
