The traits of an organism are controlled by genes and environment.
Genes
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.
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is a molecule that carries genetic information in living organisms. It determines traits and characteristics passed down from parents to offspring. DNA is essential in genetics and heredity as it controls the development and functioning of organisms.
Within your cells, the genetic material that controls your traits is located in an organelle called the nucleus. The nucleus contains DNA, which consists of genes that code for proteins and determine an individual's traits and characteristics.
Lamarck's ideas about evolution include the concept that differences among the traits of organisms arise as a result of the use or disuse of those traits. This concept is known as the inheritance of acquired characteristics or the theory of soft inheritance. According to Lamarck, organisms can pass on traits that they acquire during their lifetime to their offspring.
Offspring inherit traits in most single-celled organisms and in most many celled organisms through DNA. DNA controls what genes the organism will inherit.

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.
