Genetic segment analysis

Genetic segment analysis involves examining specific sections of your DNA to identify similarities and differences compared to others. By analyzing these segments, scientists can determine genetic relationships, trace ancestry, and identify inherited traits or health risks. It's like comparing chapters of a book to see where stories match or diverge, providing insights into your genetic background and connections to family members or populations. This method helps understand how genes are passed down and how they influence characteristics or predispositions.
