Most humans (and vertebrates, in general) are genetically "programmed" to produce a brown skin pigment known as melanin. Albinis

m--the inability to produce melanin—is inherited in humans as an autosomal recessive trait. An individual with genotype AA or Aa will have normally pigmented skin, whereas an individual with genotype aa will produce no melanin. The albino's skin is very pale white, and the (highly vascularized) irises of the eyes appear red because no melanin obscures the red reflectance of blood.

An individual with genotype AA or Aa will have normally pigmented skin, whereas an individual with genotype aa will produce no melanin. The albino's skin is very pale white, and the (highly vascularized) irises of the eyes appear red because no melanin obscures the red reflectance of blood.

The frequencies aa (Parental genotype male) and Aa (Parental genotype female, predict the frequencies of all genotypes and phenotypes expected  to result from the cross of an albino male with a heterozygous female.

The Psalmist expresses his awe and thanksgiving to God for his affection by continually singing Him songs of praise.

The simplest way to thank God is to see Him everywhere and appreciate His presence in our life. It's important for us to remember that we are living because of Him.

The Psalms contain powerful quotes for giving thanks and finding blessings. Psalms 1 - 150 showed how the Psalmist was thanking God by singing praises to Him. The unifying theme of Psalms is praise for God.
