It is possible but usually impossible to prove on ancient people. You could possbily prove it on living people. Has that ever been found?

One of the problems with it is that there is no-one to match up to for offspring to have the mutation although theoretically the offspring can inherit from only one parent. At any event one would expect a mixed population of blondes and black hair but that is not the case in Scandinavia although that is where some of the frost giants came from they would have been a small minority.

Didn't scandanavians go through a bottleneck?

But I haven't mentioned male or female in the analogy.
What is meant by any Analogy ? tell me :)

An analogy is meant to illustrate a concept.

But a poorly-crafted analogy can fail if the concept doesn't match. Perhaps something that both ants and elephants can eat, but in different ways, might have been better.

Yes. You look different from your parents. Some people are born with defects.

Genetics.

Well, I don't know what kind of hair the Frost Giants have, as I've never seen one. I also don't know Scandinavia's demographics.

However, I have red hair. There hasn't been anyone in my family with this red hair for three generations, as it comes from my great-great-grandmother who fled Ireland's Great Hunger.
