Hybrid

Imagine trying to decide what to have for dinner when one person wants pizza and another wants sushi. This situation is similar to how in genetics, a hybrid is the offspring resulting from parents that have different forms of a trait, like one parent with a tall trait and the other with a short trait. Just as the dinner decision might result in a compromise, such as a sushi pizza, the hybrid inherits a mix of traits from both parents, leading to a unique combination that reflects both influences.
