A child can only inherit a trait if one of the parents exhibit the trait.

A. True

B. False

The correct answer is A. True

Yes, it is true that inheritance of character in offspring can only be possible if one of the parents will have that character. Genes play a major role in the inheritance of a character from parents to children. Genes come in different varieties, called alleles. Somatic cells contain two alleles for every gene, with one allele provided by each parent of an organism. These alleles contain traits, one or both of the above alleles could be expressed.

Gregor Mendel was the first person to describe the manner in which traits are passed on from one generation to another.
