Please choose an answer.
The true statements about inherited traits are:
1. Dominant traits hide or mask the other traits.
– This is true because dominant traits can overshadow recessive traits in an organism’s phenotype.
2. Traits are passed on through our DNA.
– This is true as DNA carries the genetic information that determines traits.
3. Chromosomes contain DNA.
– This is true because chromosomes are structures within cells that house DNA.
The statement “Recessive traits hide or mask the other traits” is false; it’s actually the dominant traits that do this, while recessive traits are only expressed when two copies are present. The statement “Genes contain chromosomes” is also false; it’s the other way around: chromosomes contain genes.
