Offspring generally inherit the worst combination of traits from their parents, suggesting that bad breath, quick tempers, smelly feet, and poor math skills are dominant traits. c.

The inactive X becomes a Barr body. The inactivation of the X chromosome is random. Generally, maternally and paternally derived X ...
