Sometimes the copy from mother or father is silenced, and only the copy from one parent is active. If the only active gene is damaged, it can show up in the form of genetic disease. An example of genomic imprinting, is the mixing of tigers and lions.Who the mother is, has direct effect on the offspring. A mother tiger and a father lion, results in a liger. Ligers are much bigger than either parent. A mother lion and a father tiger, results in a tigon.ometimes the copy from mother or father is silenced, and only the copy from one parent is active.

Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic mechanism of inheritance which allows genes to be expressed differently depending on which parent they come from. This means it is modification of the genome, or changes what the genome produces, without changing the nucleotide (DNA) sequence.his is the one of the first evidences of genomic imprinting discovered. In the first part of the diagram a mutant gene trying to make the mouse offspring dwarf is passed from the mother. It can be seen that the mouse is not dwarf because the allele for size in this mouse is an imprinted.
