What must be true of traits that are passed down through generations?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
Traits that are passed down through the generations must be either culturally or environmentally inculcated or genetically inherited (or some combination of these).
Evolutionary Biology concerns itself with genetically inherited traits.
In the long term, for genetically inherited traits to continue to be passed down through the generations, they must be at least neutral with regard to reproductive fitness, or advantageous (i.e. they must not be subject to negative selection pressure)
