Introduction
Genetic qualities are passed down through inheritance from parents to their young ones, who receive all of their parents' genetic material. Thus, heredity explains why parents and their offspring share many of the same personality traits. The distinctive characteristics that parents pass on to their children include blood type, eye color, and hair color. Even illnesses may be transferred from parents to their children. Humans contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, of which 22 pairs are autosomes and X or Y are sex chromosomes.
