Answer:
ok, I'm gonna answer this as best as I can. basically, offspring don't look exactly like either parents because half of their genetic makeup comes from the mom, the other from the dad. and the genetics from each parent are always different for each sibling. the certain features each parent gives to their offspring are random. if one parent had a dominant trait for one feature, and the other parent has a recessive, the dominant overrides the recessive and the dominant trait is the phenotype (physical appearance). just because an offspring doesn't have the phenotype of a certain trait doesn't mean they don't have the genotype (the trait's gene) and that they can't. pass it onto their offspring in the future. I hope that makes sense, I tried my best! kinda hard to explain because I'm only 14 and just learned this stuff this year haha.
