Human genetics are MUCH more complicated than ball python morph genes. There are tons of genes that correspond to race. Normally skin color does seem to be a mix between the two, but it doesn't follow Mendelian genetics the way ball pythons do. Even something as simple as eye color had dozens of genes that go into it.

Some human diseases follow a Mendelian gene pattern, such as Huntington's Disease, Neurofibromitosis (both dominant), cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia (both recessive).
