Detailed explanation-1: -These two copies of the gene contained in your chromosomes influence the way your cells work. The two alleles in a gene pair are inherited, one from each parent. Alleles interact with each other in different ways. These are called inheritance patterns.
Detailed explanation-2: -Genes come in pairs. Each person receives one copy of a gene pair from his mother and one from his father. Even though you get half of your genes from your mother and half from your father, each of your parents contributes to all your traits. For the each trait, there are different versions of a gene.
Detailed explanation-3: -Genes are expressed in different ways, and some genes are dominant over others. In other words, not all genes are always working at the same time. It depends on the combination of the gene pair inherited from the parents.
