5. The pedigree below traces the inheritance of Albinism, a genetic disorder. Affected individuals, indicated here by the coloured circles and squares, are unable to make a normal amount of melanin, the chemical that is responsible for eye, skin, and hair colour. Does Albinism appear to be caused by a dominant allele or by a recessive allele? Fill in the genotypes of the individuals whose genotypes can be deduced. What genotypes are possible for each of the other individuals? Explain! Naruto Hinata Reiner Asta Hange Mikasa Eren Historia Luffy Nezuko Zenitsu Tanjiro Son Goku

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
