Definition Genetic inheritance addresses how traits are transmitted from one generation to another. While the word "inheritance" alone is typically used and taken to mean genetic inheritance, the term cultural inheritance is also a valid concept and deals with how cultural factors are transmitted. ...
The perpetuation of a family's position in the distribution of income from parents to children reflects the genetic and cultural transmission of individual traits, as well as the inheritance of group memberships and income-earning assets. This article shows that the extent of intergenerational ...

Genetic Inheritance Classically, the heritable transmission of traits is dependent upon genes, and in most species, genes are maintained as sequences of double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). This is the basis forgeneticinheritance. Each strand of DNA is a polymer (chain) of nucleotides that...
have an intermediatephenotype, and the majority of individuals group at the mean (Mossey, 1999). Traits with continuous variation are also called quantitative traits. With these traits, involvement of a wide range of genetic and environmental factors results in the production of wide-ranging ...
To inherit something means to derive or to receive something from a previous holder. Inheritance in genetic terms, means an offspring, or child (like you) receiving certain traits, behavior or characteristics from your mum and dad. Our parents’ genes will determine what we will look like. ...
In genetic inheritance both parents contribute one half of the genetic material that is needed to create offspring. On these contributed genes are chromosomes that contain the information that is needed to construct offspring. Each of these chromosomes (also know as autosomes) is considered dominant ...
3.4.S3 Analysis of pedigree charts to deduce the pattern of inheritance of genetic diseases. 遗传病大多数是基因突变引起的,研究发现许多疾病都有遗传倾向性。超过半数的遗传病与隐性基因有关,也就是说如果要患病需要有两个隐性等位基因共同存在。一个有趣的现象是,我们大多数人都是某些遗传病的携带者(伴性...
Human behavioral traits are complex phenotypes that result from both genetic and cultural transmission. But different inheritance systems need not favor the same phenotypic outcome. What happens when there are conflicting selection forces in the two domains? To address this question, we derive a Price...
Clonal expansion of cells with somatically diversified receptors and their long-term maintenance as memory cells is a hallmark of adaptive immunity. Here, we studied pathogen-specific adaptation within the innate immune system, tracking natural killer (N
