Question: Why do we sometimes get more charastics from one parent then the other?

Keywords: , ,

  1. Hi annarosed21. It has a lot to do with whether the characteristics are dominant or recessive. Have a look at this question I have answered https://bit.ly/13UI6SV which will explain dominant and recessive traits a little more 🙂

  2. It can also have to do with whether those traits are linked to the X chromosome. because girls have two X’s it can mean the cells choose which X chromosome has the better gene for what they want to do, so this can mean you end up with more characterisitcs of either your mum or dad.
