yo

Are you cooking all that on air, JF?

lol, sometimes

@JFGariepy hey JF, I’ve read that there are over 20 genes that determine skin color. Is it incorrect for someone to say that light skin is recessive or dominant over dark skin?

No most of the cooking will be filmed and then we will taste live on air

Depends on your definition of what is light and dark

Converse to expectations above it turns out that on the two largest effect genes explaining difference between Africans and Europeans the light alleles are more dominant than the dark alleles! In other words, if the two alleles had an equal effect you’d expect a value between the two in their homozygote state. As it is, the values tend toward higher reflectance (light) than dark.”

I read this from another biologist.. seems to say light skin is dominant?

@JFGariepy say if the entire planet mixed. Would there still be light skinned individuals? Skin types typically found in Europe and East Asia

Depends on your definition of what is light and dark

if the entire planet mixed homogenously there would be no one with skin color of europe/east asia

But there are 20 genes that determine skin tone...

virtually no one

I’m sure there would still be light skinned people

2^20 is actually a fairly small number its only 1M

It’s hard for me to find an answer to this question

Your question does not make sense

That's why

if all the foods in the world were mixed, would there still be anything that tasted as good as mama jfs christmas dinner?

any female born after 1993 can’t cook... all they know is mcdonald’s , charge they phone, twerk, be bisexual , eat hot chip & lie

@JFGariepy my question is in response to the notion that “white” skin is recessive” I’m wondering if there is truth to this or there isn’t a definitive answer because it’s a number of genes that come into play in determining someone’s skin tone

anyone into the illuminati stuff?

At this point you are not engaging with what I'm telling you

@iamwhoiam you need to define white

And then you used lighter and darker, which are relative

Ivory, beige, peach complexions found in Europe and East Asia

its like asking in QM if something is a particle or a wave

or if free will exists

you cant have a sensible answer if the question isn't well defined

I bet JF would remember

"beige"

That's going to be a problem

Is my question better defined now? I have colors of what I would consider “light”

how beige

😛

see

Beige like a slight sun tan..

give us the exactly RGB hue of the skin as perceived under the noon-day sun at the equator

you should exclude tanning effects

Ok exclude that

That's an environmental reaction

right he would know this
