The study of heredity began with Response area, who is known as the "Father of Genetics." He discovered that traits are inherited through factors we callResponse area, which are different forms of a gene. The genetic makeup of an organism, called its Response area, determines its physical traits, or Response area. When an organism has two identical alleles for a trait, it is described as Response area. If it has two different alleles, it is Response area. Some traits are controlled by Response area alleles, which overshadow Response area alleles in heterozygous individuals. Some traits show Response area, such as a cow with both red and white hair appearing as patches, where both alleles are fully expressed. In contrast, Response area results in a blend of traits, like a pink flower produced from a red and white flower cross.

The study of heredity began with Mendel, who is known as the "Father of Genetics." He discovered that traits are inherited through factors we call alleles, which are different forms of a gene. The genetic makeup of an organism, called its genotype, determines its physical traits, or phenotype. When an organism has two identical alleles for a trait, it is described as homozygous. If it has two different alleles, it is heterozygous. Some traits are controlled by dominant alleles, which overshadow recessive alleles in heterozygous individuals. Some traits show codominance, such as a cow with both red and white hair appearing as patches, where both alleles are fully expressed. In contrast, incomplete dominance results in a blend of traits, like a pink flower produced from a red and white flower cross.
