What is genetics?
• Heredity is the way organisms pass traits on
to their offspring.
• Scientists often track traits or characteristics
that show variety in a population.
• For humans, some examples of these traits are
eye color, hair color, height, body build, blood
types, intelligence, and gender.
• The biological field of genetics is the study of
these hereditary patterns.
