HeartlessMan:* Well, genetic mutation is possible. When it happens, it majorly affects the phenotype. * Heavy smoking of common substances like tobacco can cause genetic mutations. It happens first to the somatic cells, and then can be transferred through a germ cell if it doesn't disappear before he or she procreates. * One effect of mutation is genetic susceptibility. It speaks an individual's predisposition to certain illnesses such as bronchial asthma. The degree of susceptibility itself is equally transferable. * Asthma has been found to be one of such illnesses that can be inherited. * The severity of asthma in an individual, can be worsened where genetic susceptibility is a valid case. Phenotype expressions such as this are not affected by the filial generation probabilities. Filial generation probabilities cast their effects only on genotypes. This is why our ancestors could withstand a few notable harshness that some persons of this present time cannot. Lifestyle makes all the difference. Thanks for that thoughtful comment. No matter the argument, there is much verifiable truth in it. |
