You only inherit genes when your a baby. from your dad and your mom. so i don't believe you would know it because you were just a sperm & an ovum starting to make you. so you can only inherit genes from your parents when you weren't born yet. :P

Gene Kelly's role in Inherit The Wind?
Gene Kelly played as E.K. Hornbeck, the news reporter, in the 1960 movie, Inherit the Wind.
Will a person with huntington's disease pass the disease to his offspring?
Maybe. Huntington's IS an inherited disease. It is carried on a Dominant gene. That means if one parent has the HD gene, and the other parent does not, then the odds are 50-50 that any one child born to that couple COULD inherit that gene, which will result in their developing HD. However, if you do NOT inherit that gene- it stops there. Unlike some genetic diseases, you cannot be a carrier of HD if you do not have it.
How does a person inherit a trait such as hair texture?
I think it's just a gene you inherit like any other
How is color blind inherited?
Males inherit the gene from their mothers.
What is the Mode of inheritance hemophilia?
Transmitted by a dominant gene. If that gene is inherited from either parent, the offspring will develop HD. If the gene is NOT inherited, then the offspring will not have HD- AND cannot pass the gene to their offspring.
What is requires for a person to have sickle cell disease?
The person is homozygous for the trait
Why do African Americans get black circles around their toes?
I suppose they inherit it as a gene.
Mendels law of segregation states that organisms inherit two copies of each gene and that?
Mendel's law of segregation states that organisms inherit two copies of each gene and that organism donate copies to offspring in predictable ratios.
Do Male hemophiliacs inherit the disease from their?
Male hemophiliacs inherit it from their mother, because hemophilia is only on the X gene and males only have one and it is from their mother.
What would your parents blood types have to be to have a child with O positive blood type?
At least one parent would have to have an RH Positive blood type. Beyond that you can not tell. Because the O trait is a recessive trait, either parent could have A or B or O blood, since, for example, a parent with A blood could have one A gene and one O gene that together would express the A trait. That parent's child could inherit either the A gene or the O gene. The other parent could have B based upon one B gene and one O gene that together would express the B trait. That other parent's child could inherit either the B gene or the O gene. Only if the child of both parents inherited an O gene from each parent, would the child have O blood. As to the RH factor, it is a dominant trait, so that if the child has the trait expressed, it would have to have been in one of the two parents. Hope this helps.
If an individual expresses a dominant disease will the children always inherit the disease?
Not always. It depends if the individual is a hybrid- meaning they have both the dominant and the recessive gene. They can pass on the recessive gene instead of the dominant one, and assuming the other parents also passes on the recessive gene, the child will not inherit the disease.
Can you inherit genes from distant cousins?
No, you can only inherit genes from your direct ancestors (parents, grand parents, great grandparents, etc.) However, both you and a distant cousin could have inherited the same gene from a common ancestor. There is no way your cousins can pass anything to you.
