What is the definition of hereditary?
Heredity: Heredity is the passing of traits to offspring (from its parent or ancestors). This is the process by which an offspring cell or organism acquires or becomes predisposed to the characteristics of its parent cell or organism. Through heredity, variations exhibited by individuals can accumulate and cause some species to evolve. Some common (human) hereditary traits are eye and hair color and ethnicity. The study of heredity in biology is called genetics, which includes the field of epigenetics.
What is the study of how genes are transferred from parents to their children and the role of genes in health and disease is known as?
Genetics
What was the first study the principles of heredity and is therefore called the father of genetics?
Gregor Mendel is considered to be the Father of Genetics, and therefore of the understanding of heredity. He was able to use plants to study the way traits are passed from parents to offspring.
Where does genectic variation come from?
Genotype variation is the change in the genetic constitution of the infant. Genotype means the genetic constitution of individual, but due to the exchange in the genetic material of the parents some changes takes place in genes of infants that is what reflects in infants. A father is bald. His hair growth is least but it's not necessary that his son will be bald. He may or may not be bald because some genes of mother also do contribute to the sons genetic constitution. (LOOK AT DISCUSSION PAGE)
What is heredity?
Hereditary transmission of the physical and psychical qualities of parents to their offspring; the biological law by which living beings tend to repeat their characteristics in their descendants. See Pangenesis.

What is ugentics?
It appears there may be a typo in your question. Perhaps you meant "genetics," which is the study of genes, heredity, and the variation of organisms. Genetics helps us understand how traits are passed from parents to offspring and how variations in DNA can lead to different characteristics.

What is the passing trait from only parent to offspring?
its Heredity is the study of traits passed down from parents to offspring influenced by DNA. Heredity is a process in which a person gets some of the physical and mental qualities of his or her parents. The biological process whereby genetic factors are transmitted from one generation to the next.
