遺伝

Also known as inheritance

Heredity, also called inheritance or biological inheritance, is the passing on of traits from parents to their offspring; either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction, the offspring cells or organisms acquire the genetic information of their parents. Through heredity, variations between individuals can accumulate and cause species to evolve by natural selection. The study of heredity in biology is genetics.

AI overview

Heredity is the process by which parents pass genetic traits to their offspring through reproduction, giving the children their biological characteristics. It matters because variations in these inherited traits can accumulate over time and drive the evolution of species through natural selection.

遺伝（いでん、英: heredity）は、生殖によって、親から子へと形質が伝わる現象のことであり、生物の基本的な性質の一つである。素朴な意味では、親子に似通った点があれば、「遺伝によるものだ」、という言い方をする。しかし生命現象としての遺伝は、後天的な母子感染による疾患や、非物質的情報伝達（学習など）による行動の類似化などを含まない。
