The reason why autosomal inheritance can better the understanding of the basic principles of physical anthropology is because, physical anthropology studies humans and their relatives, that relate to their biological characteristics, like hair nose features, behavior etc. By studying autosomal inheritance, you will be able to understand why the offspring inherited the traits form their parents, why people behave the way that they do, why our skin color changes and also why people come out retarded in families and not all the offspring, and this is because of the inheritance of autosomal traits. The presence or absence of certain alleles, causes a human to inherit traits the way that they do, and understanding these changes will better the understanding of physical anthropology.
