Buck questions

Here are a few questions regarding what part does the buck play in the new kid..... I have heard that the quality of milk comes from his side- T or F?
What about udder conformation?
What about color of goat?
What about fiber? (have angora's as well as Nubian & LaMancha milk goats)
Hoping someone knows the importance of the sire's genes, as I have a goat class to teach, and I have not found the info.... maybe a good website that has this info?
Thanks!
