The definitive word for what you are describing is: 'familial tendencies' which means if health history reveals that someone within the paternal[father lineage] or maternal[mothers] side has [or has had] a disease, whether physical, mental or otherwise, the likelihood of you developing of experiencing the same is higher!. This fact does NOT mean that you WILL !.!.!.it only increases the likelihood of occurrence versus one who never has had history of diease in family health line!. For example: Alcoholism is very high incidence in your fathers family line, including him as a heavy drinker[maybe not necessarily an alcoholic though] then "YOU" or any of his children will be categorized as being at high risk for becoming alcohol dependent or alcoholic versus an individual who has no history of alcoholism in their family [they are more likely NOT to become an alcoholic]!. This is primarily used as a health assessment tool & guidline within the health sciences, NOT used as an absolute determining diagnosis!. Many people who have health histories of mental disease, etc have individuals for generations that are healthy happy well adjusted productive members of society!.!.!.so remember that!
