        Maybe I should have been more explicit. I don't consider skin,
eye, hair
or color to be anything more than falling in a range. The important
thing
to note to me is that as humans we all should have eyes, hair, and
skin in
the right places. Variations in color or expression are due to
internal and
external environmental factors. If the people below all lived together
from
birth and ate, exercised, and thought the same and were from the same
area
geographically as well as their ancestors for say the last 10,000
years
they would be very similar. Take a look at places in the world with
the
least outside influences and you will see a population with even
mundane
genetic expressions such as eye, hair, and skin color virtually
identical.
Even in a population with outside influences the offspring exhibit
genetic
traits because of what they eat, think, and do more than what seems to
be
random until closer inspection.

        But they all grow from the same influences just not to the
same extent.

        They all have hair was my point. Their hair is composed of the
same
materials. The same physiological process takes place in all
individuals
for the hair to grow and to be the color it is.

        My point was that they all needed to threaten their existing
levels of
muscular adaption to grow. The rate at which they responded might
differ
greatly but they all had the same physiological processes take place.
