Answer 1

look genetic inheritance could come from 7 generations . and also some features of ur body are developed due to enviromental factors like it has already been mentioned

Answer 2

Genetic inheritance does back several generations you could get it from grandparents of great great great great grandparents.  Or you could be more exposed to cold which would promt your body to grow more hair.  Or you could be adopted.

Answer 3

Who says it's completely genetic? It could be that you're exposed to alot of cold which would stimulate for your body to grow more hair.

Answer 4

You;re adopted! No, jk. Do you eat a lot more meat and dairy than them (or other foods with hormones)?  A lot of meats and dairy (like milk) have hormones in them and they can increase body hair when you eat them.

Answer 5

Simple.  Your parents have dominent genes which allow them to be hairless.  Your recessive hair gene was dominate when you were conceived, hence the hair.  Example two black dogs will most likely have black offspring, but there is the possiblility that two white recessive genes will dominate and produce a white puppy.

Answer 6

Hair growing is influenced by several genes. It is possible that one of your parents doesn't have hair because of this gene, your  other parent doesn't have hair because of that gene. They are both heterozygous for their genes so you can get their genes in a combination which coses you to grow hair.

A more odd answer: one of your parent is more hairy...
