Answers
GPT 3.5
A trait is a specific characteristic or feature of an organism. It can be a physical attribute, such as eye color, or a behavioral attribute, such as the ability to swim. Traits are inherited through genes, which are segments of DNA passed down from parents to their offspring. DNA carries the genetic information that determines an organism's traits. Therefore, an organism gets its traits from its parents, inheriting genetic material that influences its physical and behavioral characteristics.
