genetic inheritance patterns
Genetic inheritance patterns refer to the predictable ways in which traits and genetic information are passed down from parents to offspring through genes. This involves understanding the various mechanisms, such as dominant and recessive alleles, codominance, incomplete dominance, and sex-linked inheritance, that influence how specific traits are inherited within a population.
