Heredity is the passing of traits from parents to their offspring, either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. This is the process by which an offspring cell or organism acquires or becomes predisposed to the characteristics of its parent cell or organism. Through heredity, variations exhibited by individuals can accumulate and cause some species to evolve through the natural selection of specific phenotype traits. The study of heredity in biology is called genetics, which includes the field of epigenetics.
In humans, eye color is an example of an inherited characteristic: an individual might inherit the "brown-eye trait" from one of the parents. Inherited traits are controlled by genes and the complete set of genes within an organism's genome is called its genotype.
The complete set of observable traits of the structure and behavior of an organism is called its phenotype. These traits arise from the interaction of its genotype with the environment. As a result, many aspects of an organism's phenotype are not inherited. For example, suntanned skin comes from the interaction between a person's phenotype and sunlight; thus, suntans are not passed on to people's children. However, some people tan more easily than others, due to differences in their genotype: a striking example is people with the inherited trait of albinism, who do not tan at all and are very sensitive to sunburn.

This video discusses the basics of genetics and heredity. It discusses why offspring have shared characteristics and the role alleles play in that. It also reviews the basics of Mendelian genetics addressing the differences between purebreeds and hybrids and dominant and recessive alleles. You will be shown how to fill out a Punnett Square and how to read it.

But how do we know so much about genetics today? Hortensia Jiménez Díaz explains how studying pea plants revealed why you may have blue eyes.

Phenotype, genotype, gene expression , alleles and much more. All these terms that you will need to know have been simplified to a level that you will never forget. Learn all that you have to know about twins and their heredity in this very tutorial. We at Byju's Classes strongly believe that a spirit of learning and understanding can only be inculcated when the student is curious, and that curiosity can be brought about by creative and effective teaching. It is this approach that makes our lectures so successful and gives our students an edge over their counterparts.

CHAPTER 5 HEREDITY AND VARIATION CLASS 12TH Genetics : is the branch of science which deals with Heredity and Variation. Heredity: is the transfer of characters from one generation to other generation. Variation: is described as the changes imbibed in the offspring (children) and siblings (brothers and sisters) of a Biparental (Male and Female) sexual reproduction. Pre-mendelian views Moist vapours theory by Pythagoras (580-500 B.C) – different part of the body produces moist vapors which take part in the formation of embryo parts. Fluid theory by Impedances (504-533 B.C) and reproductive blood theory by Aristotle (384 – 322 B.C) Preformation theory – Malpighi (1673) believed that homunculus or miniature individual is present in sperm of egg. Theory of pangenesis by Darwin which ...

RAP-HEREDITY
Me teaching the students about Heredity and the ties to Appalachia.
I'm the family face
Flesh perishes, I live on
Projecting trait and trance.
Through time to times anon
And leaping from place to place
Over oblivion
The years - heired feature that can
In cursive and voice and eye
Despise the human span
Of durance - that is I;
The eternal thing in man
