Results are shown above for 3 biallelic SNPs on the same chromosome used in a GWAS examining SNP-trait correlations for a complex human disease trait. Tabl entries show the number of people with the indicated SNP allele that have the disease (disease group) or don't have the disease (control group). Which SNP would have the highest -log₁0(p-value) score in a Manhattan plot summarizing results of this GWAS, and which is the SNP "risk allele"?

Genetic Evolution

Sexual reproduction produces distinct population variations. Heredity determines the traits and qualities to be passed down to the progeny. Over time, this variation within-species is also affected by the process of human evolution. The study of how genetic variation leads to evolutionary changes is known as genetic evolution. If a trait helps an organism to survive and reproduce, it is more likely to be passed down the generations. It is rare that such traits result in a completely distinct set of traits in descendants than the ancestral population; this can result in the emergence of a new species.
