Meiosis....The Reason You're Here

Today, in college class, we talked about meiosis. It's how gametes are made. Without going into too much detail, this is why were all different, even brothers, sisters, cousins, etc.
For those of you who don't know, my dad and his brother are colorblind. Colorblindness is hereditary. It travels through the 23rd or gender chromosome. I thought that Dyson, Dalton, and I carried the gene but it just isn't dominant. I was wrong. We can't pass it on because we don't actually carry the gene. It's carried through females only. It was carried through grandma Tolbert, grandma Linda, then my dad and Reginald. Since Dyson, Dalton, and I (are male which have XY gender chromosomes) got our X chromosomes from our mothers (who don't have the colorblindness gene) we don't have, nor can we pass it on. Cool huh...I do, however, posess the gene to where I can pass on my myopic degeneration.

I'm trying to start on my graduation project that is due on December 16th!!!! Ahh!!! It's crazy!!! I have to write 8-10 pages of junk about music. Grrr...
