Genetically over many generations mutations and differences can occur and that is called Evolution. If we are talking within a single generation and general behavior charicterstics, I'm not sure that has a name. This is just the sum of a person's experiences are what makes them. the whole nature vs nurture debate.
What else can I help you with?
What are minor genetic differences between parents and offspring?
ANSWER: can accumulate over generations so that descendants are very different from their ancestors
Small differences between parents and offspring accumulate over time. This process?
This process is known as genetic drift or evolution, where small variations in traits between parents and their offspring can lead to significant changes in a population over generations. These differences may arise from mutations, environmental factors, or selective pressures, and can contribute to the diversification of species. Over time, these cumulative changes can result in new species or adaptations that enhance survival and reproduction in specific environments.
What are the differences between offspring form by sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction?
Offspring formed by sexual reproductions use both parents' genetic material that differs from the parents. Offspring formed by asexual reproduction is formed by a single parent and is identical to the parent.
What is the passing of traits from parents to of spring?
The passing of traits from parents to offspring is known as heredity. Offspring inherit genetic information from their parents in the form of DNA, which contains instructions for the development and functioning of an organism. This process is responsible for the similarities and differences seen between family members.
What word describes the offspring of a cross between parents with different traits?
The offspring of a cross between parents with different traits is called a hybrid.
What are the key differences between sexual and asexual reproduction?
Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes from two parents, resulting in genetic variation in offspring. Asexual reproduction does not involve gametes and produces genetically identical offspring.
When the offspring are intermediate between the two parents it is called?
When the offspring are intermediate between the two parents, it is called incomplete dominance. This means that neither trait is dominant over the other, resulting in a blend of the two traits in the offspring.
What are the differences between sexual and asexual reproduction in terms of genetic diversity and offspring variation?
In sexual reproduction, offspring inherit genetic material from two parents, leading to greater genetic diversity and variation among offspring. In asexual reproduction, offspring are genetically identical to the parent, resulting in less genetic diversity and variation.
What are the differences between asexual and sexual reproductuo n?
Asexual reproduction involves a single parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent. Sexual reproduction involves two parents and produces offspring with genetic variation due to the combination of genetic material from both parents.
What are the key differences between sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction in terms of genetic diversity and offspring variation?
In sexual reproduction, offspring inherit genetic material from two parents, leading to greater genetic diversity and variation among offspring. In asexual reproduction, offspring are genetically identical to the parent, resulting in less genetic diversity and variation.
The fact that offspring may have characteristics somewhat different from those of their parents is primarily due to?
meiosis.
Offspring that result from crosses between parents with different traits?
genes
