Question

Accepted Answer

### Question 1
# Answer:
B. heredity
# Brief Explanations:
Heredity is defined as the passing of traits from parents to offspring. Genetics is the study of heredity, features are characteristics, and learned behavior is acquired, not inherited.

### Question 2
# Answer:
A. genes
# Brief Explanations:
Genes are the sets of instructions in cells that determine inherited traits. Features are traits, heredity is the process, and learned behavior is acquired, not genetic instructions.

### Question 3
# Answer:
D. weaker genes that hide when a dominant gene is present
# Brief Explanations:
Recessive genes are expressed only when dominant genes are absent; they are "weaker" in expression when a dominant allele is present. Option A is dominant, B is not about genes, C is incorrect.

### Question 4
# Answer:
B. freckles
# Brief Explanations:
Freckles are inherited traits (genetically determined). Using a computer, playing games, and reading are learned behaviors, not inherited.

### Question 5
# Answer:
B. how your body grows and appearance
# Brief Explanations:
Genes influence physical growth and appearance. Abilities to play soccer/ride a bike are learned, and circulatory function is physiological (not directly a trait influenced by genes in this context).

### Question 6
# Answer:
C. at least one brown eye gene
# Brief Explanations:
Dominant genes (brown eye) require at least one allele to be expressed. No brown genes (A) or two green (B) would not give brown; three genes (D) is incorrect (humans have two alleles for eye color).

### Question 7
# Answer:
A. something you are taught or learn through experience
# Brief Explanations:
Learned behavior is acquired via teaching/experience. B is inherited, C is heredity, D is genes.

### Question 8
# Answer:
A. a learned behavior
# Brief Explanations:
Piano playing is a skill learned through practice/teaching, not inherited (B) or a gene type (C/D).

### Question 9
# Answer:
D. They make it possible for people to keep growing and learning new things
# Brief Explanations:
Learned behaviors allow adaptation/learning. A/B/C relate to genes/heredity, not learned behaviors.
