Answer 2

Answer:

• Pedigree analysis is a record of occurrence of a trait in several generations of a family.
• It is based on the fact that certain characteristic features are heritable in a family, for example, eye colour, skin colour, hair form and colour, and other facial characteristics.
• Along with these features, there are other genetic disorders such as Mendelian disorders that are inherited in a family, generation after generation.
• Hence, by using pedigree analysis for the study of specific traits or disorders, generation after generation, it is possible to trace the pattern of inheritance.
