What Is A Pedigree?

What is a pedigree?

A pedigree is a diagram that depicts the biological relationships between an organism and its ancestors. It comes from the French "pied de grue" ("crane's foot") because the branches and lines of a pedigree resemble a thin crane's leg with its branching toes. A pedigree is used for different animals, such as humans, dogs, and horses. Often, it is used to look at the transmission of genetic disorders.
