Pedigrees

The video tutorial explains pedigrees, which are like family trees used to track inherited traits across generations. It covers the symbols used in pedigrees, such as circles for females and squares for males, and explains how traits are represented, focusing on autosomal recessive traits like attached earlobes. The tutorial also discusses genotype analysis, including how to determine carriers and the implications of sex-linked traits. The importance of understanding pedigrees for genetic disorder inheritance is emphasized.
