HUMAN GENETICS ARCHITECTURE LEARNING OBJECTIVES
... Autosomal traits are associated with a single gene on an autosome (non-sex chromosome)—they are called "dominant" because a single copy—inherited from either parent—is enough to cause this trait to appear. This often means that one of the parents must also have the same trait, unless it has arisen d ...

Genes

This affects how the trait appears in the child. For example, maybe both parents have brown eyes. Let's say that they each have one gene for brown ...
