Heredity
 In every cell of the human body
there are 46 chromosomes
arranged in 23 pairs.
 Along each tiny chromosome lie
genes, or genetic traits (the
colorful bands shown here )
 It is estimated that there are over
1 million genes in each cell of the
body.

Heredity
 At the time of
conception 23
chromosomes from the
sperm, and 23
chromosomes from the
egg come together and
a new life begins.
 23 (mom) + 23 (dad) =
YOU!
 All the genetic
information contained
in the sperm and egg
are passed on to you
Heredity
 Some traits are stronger than others and are more
likely to appear when chromosomes come together.
 For example, the gene for brown eyes is stronger than
the gene for blue eyes.
 Dominant Gene – stronger gene that is more likely to
appear (ex brown eyes)
 Recessive Gene – weaker gene that is less likely to appear
(ex blue eyes)

Gene Assignment
Heredity
 Aside from inheriting physical characteristics you also
inherit:
 Talents
 Personality
 However unlike eye color and blood type, which are
fixed characteristics (if you are a blue eyed person you
will always be a blue eyed person) talents and
personality depend on a few things…
Heredity
 An inherited talent for music, sports or mathematics is
not a fixed characteristics.
 Mother – Teacher
 Father – Hockey Player
 Above are two talents my parents had. This did not
mean I was going to automatically become a teacher,
nor did it mean I was going to become a good hockey
player.
 Talents and skills depend on a variety of factors.
