Question

Which trait is Lisa most likely to inherit from her mother? pierced ears pink hair bright red lips brown eyes

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is- Brown eyes.

Trait is a physical characteristic of an individual that is determined by genes. Genes are inherited from parents to their offspring and so the traits are also passed.

In the given question, pierced ears ( done at later stage after birth) and pink hairs ( done through chemical treatments) are not traits. Bright red color of the lip is influenced by both genetic as well as environmental factors.

Brown eye color is a trait that Lisa is most likely to inherit from her mother as it is only determined by genes and there is no environmental influence.

Answer 2

The answer would be Brown eyes as none of the other choices are traits.
