What are the obvious inherited genetic abilities  - I've forgotten?

Stick your thumb up in a hitch-hiker move. If it stays straight up or if you can bend it back at the first knuckle, that's determined by your genes. The widow's peak hairline vs. straight hairline is another.

I think both are important genetics and environment.  However a person born smart (like you put it) but not exposed to knowledge will not excell to their full potential. And in the same regard a person born handicapted (*even slightly) cannot be made much smarter even with a great learning environment, this is a definite opion type question.

I feel sorry to say this, but no one who isn't biologically related to you can even guess at your heritage.\n\nDo your adoptive parents have knowledge of who your biological parents (or any blood relative) are/were? \n\nI don't know if you are old enough to do this or not, but when/if you are, their are agencies, etc. who will try to find out the who, what, where, when, about your biological parents.  \n\nMany people of European descent have your qualities (not only Germans and Scandanavians).  I've known a couple of Jewish and Italian people with very light features.\n\nYour breast and butt size don't mean squat - as far as what country you're descended from.  That would be heredity.\n\nI do hope that you are able to find your heritage (at least some names of relatives).  It's possible that adult relatives are looking for you.  Good luck, and have faith.

Very simply put, dominance and recessiveness are characteristics of genes.\n\nA dominant gene is expressed (shows up visibly in the offspring) when only one copy of the gene is present, on one chromosome from one parent. Let's say Tallness is a Dominant gene. If you have ONE tall parent, and get ONE copy of the Tall gene, you will probably be tall. If your tall parent was the son or daughter of a TALL and a SHORT person, they may only have ONE copy of that gene. If you get both SHORT chromosomes from Mom and DAD, you will NOT be tall. So you have 50 to 100 chance of being tall with a Dominant gene.\n\nNow, let's take the gene for BLUE eyes. It is recessive. You need TWO copies of this gene to get blue eyes. If Mom has blue eyes and Dad has blue eyes, and you get copies of both blue eye genes, you will have blue eyes. But if Mom has blue eyes, and Dad has brown eyes, you might end up with Brown eyes. Don't that make your blue eyes brown, so to speak.\n\nBUT..if Dad's mom had blue eyes and Dad's dad brown (your grandparents) and if Dad has one blue eye gene and one brown eye gene and has brown eyes AND if your Mom still has those blue peepers, you have a 1/4 chance of ending up with one blue eyed gene from AND a blue eyed gene from Dad and you will also have blue eyes like your Mum. Don't that make your brown eyes...blue?

If this is a single-gene trait (which your problem assumes) for which the disease is the recessive trait, and everyone else is healthy, both parents must be Cc, since that is the only way they could possibly not have the trait but be able to pass it on.

First, what does this have to do with your genetic heritage?\n\nSecond, just do your job above and beyond what is required and you will become indispensible.

i would suggest consulting with a genetic counselor to discuss your particular situation. see info below...

It's very possible. My best friend is Native American, and she is as blue eyed/blonde as them come. Recessive genes can toss you through a loop. Give him the benefit.

Traits that are genetically based can be inherited either dominantly or recessively.  Traits refer to what we call a phenotype, and the specific combination of DNA leading to this phenotype we call the genotype.  As an example, let's consider a pea plant which has two descrete and separate heights: large and small.  To analyze the inheritance of plant height, you first establish small or large plants that breed true, for example, crossing a large plant with a large plant always breeds large plants.  Then, you breed true-breeding large and small plants together.  If large is dominant (and small recessive), the offspring will all be large, because the 'large' genotype is dominanting the 'small' genotype.  If small is dominant the offspring are small.  Dominant and recessive are mutually exclusive classifications of the genotype.  \n\nTo extend this analysis further, you can cross that large x small generation (called the F1 generation) together (this is called an intercross).  Let's say large is dominant and the F1 plants are all large.  Intercrossing the F1 will lead to both small and large offspring.  If only one gene is responsible for the plant height, then the ratio of large:small plants will be 3:1.  \n\nThis is the essence of genetics, the linkage of genes to discrete, measurable characteristics.  Not all characteristics are genetic, and for complex issues such as diseases many genes play a role.  But the essence is still the same.  It works because for every person or plant, you receive one genome set from your mother and one genome set from your father, thus the inheritable characteristics you develop can then be passed down to the next generation.

Perhaps you want a website that will take the pictures of both parents and somehow morph them?  The resulting photo will be more silly than a useful indication of what your offspring might look like.  Find a genetic planner and discuss the traits that you both possess, and you might figure out which traits are more likely to be dominant.  You can come up with educated guesses for hair and eye color, etc., but nothing more definitive than that.

It varies.\n\nIn some cases, a change in the genetic material is noticeable immediately.  For example albinism, or lack of pigment.  This genetic trait can be passed on and it is obvious.\n\nOther cases might require changes in more than one gene or DNA site to become obvious.  These changes can remain hidden for generations before the change becomes apparent.  Other mutations, such as male pattern balding, are not expressed in every generation, but often seem to skip a generation.\n\nThere are also mutations that are so sever as to cause the individual to not be viable.  Infertile plant seeds and bird & animal eggs or still-birth mammals can be examples of non-viable mutations.

Your question is incomplete, but I'll answer it as it relates to me.\nThree of my four grandparents were dead before I was born, so I have no idea whether I represent the F1 or F2 generation.\nAnd, by the way, isn't your question better suited for a genetics category!
