Answer:
For part 1
The statement to correcting the student's misconception is that 'ACQUIRED TRAITS CANNOT BE INHERITED'
For part 2
The statement is True - Traits acquired during lifetime ARE NOT passed on through genes.
Explanation:
For part 1 and 2
The appearance of an organism depends on TWO FACTORS:
- inherited traits contained in genes, and
- environment
Therefore, the stretched neck on the giraffe is due to its adapting to the environment so is an ACQUIRED TRAIT, and would NOT alter the gene for "normal neck" present in its chromosome.
So, no matter what evolution recognizes that, 'ACQUIRED TRAITS CANNOT BE INHERITED' in the giraffe offsprings but traits contained only in the genes.
A stalactite grows towards the cave floor
A stalagmite grows towards the cave ceiling
A sinkhole is where a cave has collapsed because of gravity
A swallow hole us where a stream disappears into the ground
We need information about what Mendel did. We have no way of knowing what he did without the information you were given and did not include here.
