A trait is a characteristic, such as color or size, that is inherited by an offspring from its parents. The genes that control a trait come in pairs, one gene from each parent. We represent these gene pairs by writing a combination of two letters. For example, if one parent contributes a gene for blue eyes (c), and other parent contributes a gene for brown eyes(C), then we write the offspring’s eye color trait as Cc. This combination, of the two genes that determine the trait, is called a genotype. If gene pair contains a dominant allele, the the offspring will show this dominant trait
        
             
        
        
        
If all humans had the same DNA, and one person got the cold, everyone would die at some point. The more diversity there is the more chance of surviving an outbreak or natural disaster or something. Think of the flu. there are HUNDREDS of strains out there. some are resistant to our medicines and others aren't.
