Genetics is the study of heredity. Within the past ten years, people have had more accessibility to their heritage and information about their ancestors. There are several companies that have expertise in genetics and provide products for the average citizen to buy. They can have their DNA run to determine their health and the names of their ancestors. However, genetics including how people are related and also how living organisms are related.

Genetics all began through the famous Gregor Mendel who is well known for beginning his work through selective breeding. The most obvious connections family members can see in their eye color and hair color. Sometimes, a mother may notice that her child has the same or similar mannerisms that she does. This may be due to genetics.
