When organisms
reproduce, traits are
passed from parent to
offspring.
Inherited Traits!
- These are traits that are passed down

from parents to offspring
- The traits of an animal or plant often

help it survive in its environment
Animal offspring share similar
observable physical characteristics
or traits with their parents such as
the facial shape, color, texture and
length of the hair strands;
Plants also pass on traits
to their offspring. This
could include: flower
color, shape, leaf shape,
number of seeds in the
fruit, scent of the flowers
and plant height.
Inherited traits in humans are: eye color, hair color, skin
color, freckles, dimples, etc.
