Consider these two characteristics. Characteristic 1: a scar due to an injury
Characteristic 2: the shape of a person's face
Which characteristic is a trait that can be inherited?
Explain your answer.

the face is inherited  the scat is a trait

Explanation:

you would be born with your face shape but not a scar

Characteristic 2 is a trait that can be inherited because it is coded by genes. Characteristic 1 is a trait that can not be inherited because it is not coded for by genes. The scar only affected physical appearance because it's a trait that occurred due to injury. The shape of a person's face is something someone's born with because of alleles from parents.

-Characteristics that are coded for by genes can be inherited.

-The shape of a person’s face is inherited because this characteristic is coded for by genes.

-Characteristics that are due to an environmental factor cannot be inherited.

-A scar due to an injury cannot be inherited because this characteristic is a result of an environmental factor.
