Which is an example of an inherited trait?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Blood group
An inherited trait is determined by genetic information transmitted from parents to offspring through reproductive cells. Blood group is controlled by inherited alleles, so it is the correct example. Cutting hair, learning to read, and temporary or environmentally induced skin darkening are acquired changes or experiences; they do not normally alter the inherited genetic information passed to the next generation.
