A trait is a characteristic, such as color or size, that is inherited by an offspring from its parents. The genes that control a trait come in pairs, one gene from each parent. We represent these gene pairs by writing a combination of two letters. For example, if one parent contributes a gene for blue eyes (c), and other parent contributes a gene for brown eyes(C), then we write the offspring’s eye color trait as Cc. This combination, of the two genes that determine the trait, is called a genotype. If gene pair contains a dominant allele, the the offspring will show this dominant trait
Answer:
Biodiversity is a variation of organisms (plants, animals and bacteria) in the world or a specific habitat. Biodiversity helps to keep an ecosystem healthy because there is more variation of food and different organisms can rely on each other for survival. Also it offers a larger more reliable food chain and if one species is suddenly wiped out, it won't impact the ecosystem as much as it would if the biodiversity was smaller.
