[QUOTE="Rmc, post: 1725392, member: 39072"] The expaination that made the most sense to me was look at genetics similiar to a house plan. You have the basic plan. Then you have the plans that tell those making the house what supplies they need to make . Then the instructions for those building the house how to do it. You can have mistakes or changes at any or all of those steps.same with genetic makeup. If the person cutting the lumber for the house can vary from them houe plan . Or those building the house can vary. So if the new homeowner expects the house and expected to see a 4x4 at a certain location and its only a 2x4 . It could have been caused by different things. 1 the house plan called for a 2x4 not a 4x4. 2 the saw mill wasnt paying attention and cut a 2x4 or didnt have the wood he needed for a 4x4 so only cut a 2x4. 3 person building the house substituted a 2x4 because of lack of attention. Or only had a 2x4 to use so thats what they used. The homeowner can only see the house so has no idea where the mistake was made. [/QUOTE]
