Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduction to inheritance of patterns

Alleles are different versions of the same gene. Each gene typically has two alleles, one inherited from each parent. These alleles can be the same or different, and they determine an individual's traits, such as eye color, hair color, height, or susceptibility to certain diseases.
