Question

The process of transfer of characters from parents to offspring is referred to as ______

  1. Inheritance
  2. Heritage
  3. Genetics
  4. Variation

hintHint:

The process of transfer of characters from parents to offspring is known as inheritance.

The correct answer is: Inheritance


    • The unit of inheritance are known as genes.
    • Every gene has two alternate characters expressed by a pair of alleles.
    • During meiosis the pair of alleles segregate and each gamete receives only one allele.
    •
