[edit] More

Shouldn't there be more in this article? For example, like WHAT people inherit -- various diseases, height, if their parents are fat they'll probably be a little bit on the heavier side too, if their grandma had twins they'll probably have twins too, etc. I don't know, I just feel like this article is lacking a lot and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one. ― Sturr ★彡 Refill/lol 04:45, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

It seems to me that this article focuses mainly on the History- not science of heredity. It doesent really describe dom./ reccesive alleles or codominence ect. I will try to help, but i'm tired now. Also, some organazation would be helpful.ScientificAndrew-merican 01:59, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
