Heredity & Evolution

How are Traits Passed from Parents to Offspring
... How are Traits Passed from Parents to Offspring? A trait is a characteristic such as color or size that is inherited by an offspring from its parents. The genes that control a trait come in pairs, one gene from each parent. We represent these gene pairs by writing a combination of two capital letter ...
