the dominant gene
@Boris Todbringer You honestly know absolutley nothing about genetics
its not like you have literally every gene from both parents
Genes do not work like averages
If your dad is 6'1 and your mother is 4'11 you have a much lower chance of being more than 6'1 because of the influence your mother's height will have on your height. You clearly don't know anything about genetics either. It is true that the dad's genes may be dominant, but that doesn't render the genes of the other parent completely futile @meratrix
thats factually untrue
your height is largely random within a specific range
If you mix a pygmy with a Nordic, should we expect the child to be either 100% black or 100% white? No, the child would be somewhere in the middle
That is just stupid
for all we know 6'1 is short for the dads family and you inherit the dads gene and become 6'5
height is actually largely determined by genes interacting with the environment
not just the genes themselves
> genes interacting with the environment
are you trolling us?
me?
no
The environment that you grow up in has no effect on your genetic makeup, lmao
the environment does have an effect on the human body
how do genes interact with anything but other genes
It doesn't have an effect on your genes, stupid @meratrix
stunted growth from disease for example,you may have been tall, but if growth is stunted that won't happen
but thats not genetic
yes, but it is part of height, which he brought up
trying to get a gotcha
Can you answer my question then? Shouldn't we expect the offpsring between a pygmy from the Congo basin and someone from Northern Europe to either be 100% white or 100% black? That makes no sense @radeon
If your gene theory were to be correct, that would be the result
no, because there are multiple genetic pairs that go into pigmentation
same with hair color
are you speaking in terms of melanin content?
and eye color
There are also multiple genetic pairs that go into your IQ and your height
yes, but the dominance and recessive relationship still holds
@meratrix this is why mixed race children with the same parents can have varying skin tones
But that doesn't render the other parent's genes futile
it does when they aren't dominant
no, it renders them more irrelivent
@radeon They can, but they will never be either 100% white or 100% black
Cum is white therefore everyone is white.
Problem solved.
and if they have mostly recessive genes, then they are completley meaningless
