Hint:
A trait, as related to genetics, is a specific characteristic of an individual.
The correct answer is: Inherited
- A trait, as related to genetics, is a specific characteristic of an individual. Traits can be determined by genes, environmental factors or by a combination of both. Traits can be qualitative (such as eye color) or quantitative (such as height or blood pressure).
- Inherited traits are coded in our DNA and hence can be passed on to the next generation. Example: eye color, height, complexion, hair color etc. The variations that emerge as a result of sexual reproduction may be inherited which causes an increase in the survival rate of entities.
