Select the statement(s) which are true about inherited traits.

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.
