(Apex Learning) It was developed by many scientists over many decades.
The term that describes inherited traits that are visible would be the organisms phenotype. The genotype would be the genes that make the traits.
Our understanding of DNA and inherited traits has evolved from the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA by Watson and Crick in 1953 to the mapping of the human genome in 2003. We now know that DNA carries the genetic instructions for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all living organisms. Advances in genetics have also revealed the complex interactions between genes and the environment in shaping inherited traits.
As with any knowledge, it takes time to discover all the parts. The structure of DNA took time to learn. Then the fact that there were recurrence of 4 bases and these bases had matching bases on the second strand of DNA. We did not have the tools at first. As they came along, we learned more and more.
Genetic relationships are important in understanding inherited traits and diseases because they help us identify how traits are passed down from one generation to the next. By studying genetic relationships, scientists can determine the likelihood of certain traits or diseases being passed on within families. This knowledge is crucial for predicting and managing inherited conditions, as well as developing treatments and interventions for genetic diseases.
Ratios are important in understanding how dominant and recessive traits are inherited because they provide a quantitative way to measure the likelihood of specific genetic outcomes occurring in offspring. By analyzing ratios of dominant and recessive traits in offspring, genetic patterns and inheritance mechanisms can be better understood and predicted. Ratios help to determine the probability of an offspring inheriting specific traits based on the parents' genotypes.

Gregor Mendel took two different colored pea plants: one had traits for white plants and the other had traits for a red plant. When Mendel cross bred the two plants, a plant with traits for a pink plant grew. This is how Mendel contributed to the understanding of inherited traits.

DNA and inherited traits have evolved through processes like mutation, natural selection, and genetic drift. Over time, these mechanisms have led to variations in genetic material, allowing species to adapt to their environments. As organisms reproduce, beneficial traits become more prevalent in populations, shaping the genetic landscape. This dynamic process illustrates the ongoing evolution of DNA and the complexity of inherited traits across generations.
Traits can not be inherited in reverse order. Traits can be inherited FROM the parents
People now know the different generations. That can help them understand traits and the changes. People are easily catching on with the inherited traits and what happens, and now they can predict the different traits their children will inherit from them.
