A lion is least likely to pass on learned behaviors to its offspring, as these behaviors are developed through experience and not genetic inheritance.
If the mutation causes a characteristic that is carried as a dominate trait, then it can spread through a population. Also, if the characteristic that is brought about by the mutation is beneficial, the organism will be better suited to its environment than others. If the organism passes this trait to its offspring, then it is understood that they should survive in a greater ratio than those without the trait and the trait becomes common.
the mice is an adaptation that increased their fitness is 50% of mice that pass on their offspring
Dumb question, im in 11th grade and I know that's a dumb question. Just about everything can be passed down. Height is a gene, eye color is a gene..the list goes on. No offence but you kind of fail at science, I learned this in 6th grade.
A characteristic passed from parents to their offspring is known as a trait, which can be influenced by genetic information encoded in DNA. Traits can be physical, such as eye color or height, or behavioral, like temperament. These characteristics are inherited through alleles, which are variations of genes that parents pass down during reproduction. Environmental factors can also play a role in shaping how these traits are expressed in offspring.
Because as organism's reproduce they pass on that trait then their offspring will pass on the trait and so on
Lamarck give the idea that an organism can pass on characteristics that it acquired during its lifetime to its offspring. Also known as heritability.
Organisms have cellular organization. They reproduce and pass on traits to their offspring. They respond to stimuli and adapt to the environment.
