For many traits, expression involves multiple genes. Many such traits (eg, height) distribute as a bellshaped curve (normal distribution). Normally, each gene adds to or subtracts from the trait independently of other genes.

A gene, the basic unit of heredity, is a segment of DNA containing all the information necessary to synthesize a polypeptide (protein). Protein synthesis, folding, and tertiary and quaternary structure ultimately determine much of the body’s structure and function.

Genetic disorders determined by a single gene (Mendelian disorders) are easiest to analyze and the most well understood. If expression of a trait requires only one copy of a gene (one allele), that trait is considered dominant. If expression of a trait requires 2 copies of a gene (2 alleles), that trait is considered recessive. One exception is X-linked disorders. Because males usually have no paired allele to offset the effects of most alleles on the X chromosome, the X chromosome allele is...

Certain situations represent aberrant inheritance, often because genes or chromosomes are altered. However, some of these alterations, such as mosaicism, are very common; others, such as polymorphisms, are so common that they may be considered normal variants
