Living things reproduce, feed, respire, are sensitive to the environment and excrete waste.
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.
Offspring inherit traits in most single-celled organisms and in most many celled organisms through DNA. DNA controls what genes the organism will inherit.
Organisms in the same scientific order would have the most similar traits.
The most dominant traits are the ones that control organisms genes.

Organisms require energy to survive and metabolize nutrients. Organisms possess genetic material that codes for their characteristics. Organisms have the ability to reproduce and pass on traits to offspring. Organisms respond to their environment through behaviors and physiological mechanisms. Organisms have a complex organization at the cellular and molecular level.
Reproduction: Organisms have the ability to produce offspring. Homeostasis: Organisms maintain a stable internal environment to support life functions. Adaptation: Organisms can evolve and change over time to better suit their environment. Growth: Organisms go through various stages of development and increase in size. Response to stimuli: Organisms can react to external stimuli in their environment.
Natural Selection
All of the traits that he studied were determined by genes on autosomes. Most traits in sexually reproducing organisms result in autosomal genes
Traits are controlled by the genes of the parents.
