your welcome

A geneticist uses pedigrees primarily to trace the inheritances of traits in humans. By analyzing pedigrees, geneticists can determine patterns of inheritance for specific traits or conditions within families. This information can help them understand whether a trait is autosomal (inherited through non-sex chromosomes) or sex-linked (inherited th chromosomes), as well as whether it follows a dominant or recessive pattern of inheritance. By studying pedigrees, geneticists can also identify carriers of genetic disorders, predict the likelihood of an individual inheriting a particular trait or disorder, and provide genetic counseling to families. Therefore, the correct answer is option D: pedigrees are used to trace the inheritances of traits in humans.

so what is the answer ms, sue >?

thx so much 100%

tyy 100% :D

mine only has 14 questions

Just to clarify

12. The offspring have more genetic variation.

Just a clarification to those who are confused

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.
