Description

Please write a 4 page, double space paper on the following. Write a comprehensive lab report about researched human genetic trait, that they will track through three generations. Make up a family as an example, and use that. Please include a citation page as well. This should be super easy to do.

Scientific method structure:

1. introduction: history and background of the subject, including your hypothesis

2. materials and methods: the way you do the experiment

3. results: your results and all the tables and graphs you have for experiment

4. discussion and conclusions: discuss your experiment results and write all of the conclusions

HUMAN GENETIC TRAITS
Brown eye color is a genetic trait in people that they have inherited over generations. Eye
color is as a result of polygenic phenotypic character that is controlled by two factors; the
frequency of dependence of the scattering of light by the turbid medium in the stroma of the iris
and the pigmentation in the iris of the eyes. The iris pigmentation in human beings is different
and is seen to vary from black to light brown in respect to the melanin concentration in the iris
pigment called epithelium which is usually found at the back side of the iris. (Cummings, 2006).
Eye color is as a result of inherited traits that are determined by more than one gene. The
genes are selected using associations to single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes
and in surrounding genes. The total number of genes that determine the eye color are not
definitely known. From a research conducted in Rotterdam in 2009, scientists discovered that
