Advantageous traits are more likely to be passed onto offspring because they provide a survival or reproductive advantage, increasing the likelihood that individuals carrying those traits will survive and reproduce. This leads to a greater frequency of these traits in the gene pool over time. Dominant and recessive alleles play a role in the inheritance of traits, but it is ultimately the advantageous nature of the trait that increases the likelihood of it being passed onto offspring. Acquired phenotypes, on the other hand, are not passed onto offspring as they are a result of environmental factors and not genetic inheritance.
