Question

Heredity deals with the study of ______________.

• A. Resemblances and differences between the parent and offspring
• B. Resemblances between the parent and offspring
• C. Differences between the parent and offspring
• D. Inherited diseases only

Answer 1

The correct option is A Resemblances and differences between the parent and offspring

In the process of sexual reproduction, the offspring produced resemble their parents yet have variations in traits. They are neither totally similar nor totally different from their parents. Hence, heredity deals with the study of both resemblances and differences of offspring with their parents.

So, the correct answer is option A.
