According to the mutation accumulation theory, ageing organisms experience an increase in frailty and mortality due to the haphazard accumulation of mutations that harm them.

The traditional evolutionary explanation of ageing explains why mortality increases with age: as people age, their lifetime fertility declines, therefore their ability to continue to survive has a smaller impact on their ability to reproduce. But in addition to fertility, successful reproduction frequently entails intergenerational transfers.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

the trait with Mendelian inheritance shows segregation in the F2 generation.

Explanation:

Blending inheritance is the theory that the offspring inherits any characteristic that are intermediate between those of the parents.

However, Gregor Johann Mendel showed that this not true that hereditary substances from parents merge together in their offspring.

In the given question,

the offspring of true-breeding parents show an intermediate phenotype, although a trait such as flower color in snapdragons is determined by two alleles with incomplete dominance.

The difference is that the trait with Mendelian inheritance shows segregation in the F2 generation.
