Detailed explanation-1: -The traits which are transmitted by the parent to its offspring during the process of fertilization are inherited traits. This inheritance is determined by certain rules of heredity. Inherited traits are coded in our DNA and hence can be passed on to the next generation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Heredity – the passing of traits from parents to offspring. Genetics – the study of heredity. DNA – cellular material with all the information about what traits a living thing may have.
Detailed explanation-3: -Inheritance is the passing of traits from parents to offspring. Our modern understanding of inheritance comes from a set of principles proposed by Austrian monk and researcher Gregor Mendel in 1865.
Detailed explanation-4: -Genetic material, including genes and DNA, controls the development, maintenance and reproduction of organisms. Genetic information is passed from generation to generation through inherited units of chemical information (in most cases, genes).
