Answer:

Heredity is the biological mechanism through which the characteristics of each living being are transmitted from one generation to another.

Explanation:

Heredity is a phenomenon that represents the condition of similarity between ancestors (parental generation) and descendants (branch generation), through the continuous transfer of instructions in code form (the nitrogenous bases), inscribed in the genetic material (deoxyribonucleic acid molecule), guiding the formation, development and maintenance of a living being.

In other words, we can say that heredity is the biological mechanism through which the characteristics of each living being are transmitted from one generation to another. It involves genetic processes, since the means of transmitting information from one individual to another is the gene.
