Offspring inherit two sets of genes for each characteristic, one from each parent. This ensures genetic diversity and variations in traits among offspring.
Offspring receive two sets of the same gene that governs a characteristic, one from each parent. These sets are called alleles, and they can be the same or different. The combination of alleles inherited can determine the traits expressed in the offspring.
2 genes control each characteristic of an offspring. x
One from each parent
Parents each contribute one allele for each gene to their offspring during reproduction. This means that offspring inherit two alleles for each gene, one from each parent.

It depends on the genetics of the parents. If both parents carry a short gene, then all the offspring would have a chance of being short. If only one parent carries the short gene, then approximately half of the offspring would be short.
Females give birth to many offspring.
Either parent. Since HD is carried on a dominant gene, if the gene is inherited from either parent, the offspring will develop HD.
An offspring inherits two alleles for each gene, one from each parent. These alleles can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous).
one from each parent out of a gene pair. Because each parents contributes fifty - fifty percent in the new offspring.
