Inheritance is the process by which traits and characteristics are passed down from parents to their offspring.

Genes are instructions for making a living thing that are found in cells and passed from parents to offspring.

To reproduce means to make offspring or new individuals.

Yes, children from the same parents can have different traits, such as eye and hair color.

Offspring have similar traits to their parents, but they may inherit more traits from one parent than the other.

A trait is a characteristic or feature of an organism, such as eye color or height.

Environmental factors can affect the expression of traits, leading to variations among individuals.

DNA carries the genetic information that determines the traits of an organism and is passed from parents to offspring.

Dominant traits are expressed when at least one dominant allele is present, while recessive traits are expressed only when two recessive alleles are present.

A phenotype is the observable physical or biochemical characteristics of an organism, determined by both genetic and environmental factors.
