It’s truly interesting to observe how genetics works in families, and what a huge lottery it is to inherit some of our relatives’ appearance features.

About This Quote

This quote is all about genetics. It also talks about two families. The family consists of eight people, the first name of the eldest person in each family is written in bold letters. The second one is named after the middle child.

The third one is named after the youngest child, and so on. The lottery that the speaker mentions here is when two people in this family have children. The first one, in this case, does not have blue eyes but the second one does. This means that there is a 50/50 chance of having blue eyes instead.

This makes it hard to determine which person has blue eyes in this family.
