    This document discusses genetic inheritance and provides answers to two questions. The first question asks why dominant genetic disorders are rarely occurring, and the answer is that they are rarely inherited and can only be tracked when diagnosed. The second question asks why skin color is polygenic, and the answer is that skin color is continuous and controlled by multiple genes with alleles on different chromosomes.
