Wow!

 Just Wow! This is a rabbit hole I could build a home in and enjoy living there. It is the Genetic code and it's role in determining humanity. I remember my biology teacher telling us how exciting the Genome project was because they were going to map out and sequence every single allele in human DNA.

I finally got one of those DNA analysis thingys done, and have been studying it, to kill time, initially because I had no other thing to do, but, now it is because I want to. It fascinates me how simple information summed up by GATorC call tell each cell what to do, I guess it makes perfect sense to people who realize that AI or computers only have two choices, and yet, they are at times considered lifelike.

, ok enough generalities...I noticed in my sequence of Genes a very odd tendency of Allele duplication, in many cases resulting in a recessive trait from two dominant parents. Now, this may be the norm, but I think it is a little wink. I will now have a purpose for knowing others DNA if  only to see if it is most common for Alleles to "twin". I will explain with an simple phenotype of eyecolor.

In a scenario where A+G =brown and T+G=green and G+G=Blue and A+ anything appears brown

It was considered a simple dominant/recessive thing, which propelled me into further research because my mother had the dominant color of brown  But, really, It is a matter of having a sequence to produce certain pigment amounts, and because her sequence included an allele to produce a lot of it, and one to not produce it, and my dad didn't contribute any then statistically, I had a fifty/fifty chance of getting a color other than blue, but because my genes tend to match, the only option to match would be to have two Alleles that are recessive. As with many traits,  I end up with a "recessive" which seems impossible in the old way of thinking about it, but perfect sense if Allele matching is the most common thing to do...It would be like a matter of finding a common denominator between parents which in many cases results in a less likely expression, in terms of dominant/recessive.

To sum up. I will be spending a whole lot of time studying this and loving it!
