Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Remember DNA is condensed into chromosomes. You have 23 pairs of chromosomes, 23 from your mother and 23 from your father. Within these chromosomes, there are sections called genes that control specific characteristics or traits. These genes have both a dominant and recessive form.
Detailed explanation-2: -Traits can be determined by genes, environmental factors or by a combination of both. Traits can be qualitative (such as eye color) or quantitative (such as height or blood pressure). A given trait is part of an individual’s overall phenotype.
