genes
Offspring inherit traits in most single-celled organisms and in most many celled organisms through DNA. DNA controls what genes the organism will inherit.
Traits in organisms are controlled by genes, which are specific segments of DNA that code for different characteristics. Genes can be inherited from parents and influence the physical and behavioral traits of an organism. Environmental factors can also play a role in determining which genes are expressed and how traits are developed.

Common character traits of organisms include adaptability, resilience, reproduction, growth, and organization. These traits allow organisms to survive and thrive in their environments, ensuring the continuation of their species.
Traits are controlled by the genes of the parents.
You can get your traits from older generations and you can also get your traits from non-living organisms, too.

DNA
Yes, DNA contains the genetic information that determines an organism's traits. The sequence of DNA bases in an organism's genome dictates the production of proteins that influence characteristics such as eye color, height, and susceptibility to diseases.
The process is called selective breeding, where organisms with desired traits are chosen to breed in order to pass on those traits to future generations.
