Medical Genetics Hence the son will receive half of the father's tall" genes, on average, and half of the mothers tall genes, on average but his total genes for tallness,on average, wil be less than his father's
Medical Genetics Hence, the son will receive half of the father's "tall" genes, on average, and half of the mother's "tall" genes, on average, but his total genes for "tallness," on average, will be less than his father's
Medical Genetics Shorter than average males have fewer tall genes than average but they are still as tall as an average female, even though the average female has more tall genes
Medical Genetics Shorter than average males have fewer "tall" genes than average, but they are still as tall as an average female, even though the average female has more "tall" genes
Medical Genetics Their sons, on average, will be taller than their fathers because their mothers have, on average, more tall genes to give to their sons than their husbands have On average the son will have more tall"genes than his father
Medical Genetics Their sons, on average, will be taller than their fathers because their mothers have, on average, more "tall" genes to give to their sons than their husbands have. On average, the son will have more "tall" genes than his father
Medical Genetics 2 POLYGENIC INHERITANCE For many years the argument aged between the"Mendelians" and the galtonian as to which of the two paradigms was the correct one for human inheritance
Medical Genetics 2. POLYGENIC INHERITANCE For many years the argument raged between the "Mendelians" and the "Galtonians" as to which of the two paradigms was the correct one for human inheritance
Medical Genetics There was no question that Mendelian inheritance was correct for some diseases, but these were rare affecting only a small portion of the population. They were considered trivial by the galtonian
