This is the genealogy forum.  Genealogy is not about genetics.  It is about researching your dead ancestors.  Re-post your question in the biology forum which is more closely related to genetics.  Genetics is a science.  Genealogy is historical research.  Genealogists are not geneticists.

Each of us have the possibility of looking like others in our not immediate family. It depends on which genes and chromosones you inherit.

The physical basis for heredity, is fundamentally a discrete process where specific traits are inherited in an independent manner— which are called genes.

For instance my sister saw a picture of grandmother's sister standing with their mother and asked who the women was I was with in the picture. She thought she looked just like me.

My brother looks a lot like our great great grandfather.

Well one of my dad's friends who is Chinese has a daughter who is all Chinese...meaning there is no white in her...she looks like a little white girl.  I mean full fledged blond hair, blue eyes...and white skin.  So if this girl is Chinese and white then it is possible for you to look Asian and your dad not look Asian, even if you are both Asain.
