No, this is not always true. There may be some kids with genes from their mother more because that mothers trait of say, brown hair may be dominant. Or in other cases, the offspring may have more of their father's traits. It really depends on the dominant and recessive genes that the mother and father have.

What plant produces offspring with the same traits as the parents?

A species.


Do the offspring look exactly like their parents reproduction?

No. The offspring receive a combination of both parents DNA (roughly half from each parent although the mom contributes more due to mitochondrial DNA). During recombination the DNA of both parents is combined form a unique individual with traits from both the mother and father.


What is the percentage of crossing 2 parents for the same traits in the offspring?

My Nan.


How do the traits are not manifested in the parents show up in offspring?

Traits that are not manifested in the parents can still be passed on through their genes and show up in their offspring. These hidden traits can be carried in the genetic makeup of the parents and passed down to their offspring, where they may become visible if the necessary combinations of genes occur during the process of inheritance.


What forms offspring similar to parent?

Sexual reproduction produces offspring similar to parents. Asexual reproduction causes the offspring to be exactly the same as the one parent.


Why do offspring resemble their parents?

Offspring resemble their parents primarily due to the inheritance of genetic traits. Genes, the units of heredity, are passed from parents to offspring, leading to the transmission of certain physical characteristics and traits. This results in offspring sharing various physical features, such as eye color or hair texture, with their parents.


What do you call a group of offspring who have the same parents?

Offspring who have the same parents are called siblings.


What is special about the offspring of sexual reproduction?

They may not share the same properties as their parents. Plants that reproduce asexually have the same traits (like an immunity to a disease) however if a plant reproduced sexually it may not have the same traits.


Parents and offsprings have basically the same what?

Parents and offspring have basically the same genetic material, as offspring inherit half of their DNA from each parent. This shared genetic code is responsible for passing on physical traits and characteristics from one generation to the next.


What is the reason offspring of the organism Hydra often appear exactly the same as their parents?

Hydra may reproduce asexually


Which breeding method results in the production of offspring with the same genotype as the parents?

Pure breeding through self-fertilization or inbreeding results in offspring with the same genotype as the parents. This method involves mating individuals with homozygous genotypes for specific traits to maintain desired characteristics in the offspring.


When no two offspring are exactly the same?

This is known as genetic variation, and it is caused by genetic recombination during sexual reproduction. Offspring inherit a unique combination of genes from their parents, resulting in differences in traits such as appearance, behavior, and physiology. This variation is important for evolution and enables populations to adapt to changing environments.
