From a Website:

Have you ever wondered why you have the same eye color as your mother or the same hair color as your father? Genetics is the study of heredity or inheritance. Genetics helps to explain how traits are passed from parents to their young. Parents pass traits to their young through gene transmission. Genes are located on chromosomes and consist of DNA. They contain specific instructions for protein synthesis.

It's really easy if you just stop and think about it. Genetics is the science that shows us how every parental couple gives their child half of their genetic material.
There are 2 types of gene transmittance (genes control every single part of your body - eye color, hair color, height, skin color etc.) dominant and recessive. For further information look up Mendel's laws.
