Question

trait Inheritance of off spring

Answer 1

Inheritance also called Heredity is passing of parents traits to the offspring by reproduction. The parents pass on the gentic information to their offspring. However, offspring does not look exactly like their parents, that's because at the time of gamete formation, the recombination occurs in the genes of parents, which leads to phenotypically and genotypically different off spring. For a parents trait to be phenotypically apperaed, the gene corresponding to that must have a dominant allele for that trait. A single copy of dominant allele will mask the recessive alleles.
