Inheritance and Variation

How can inherited characteristics The inherited characteristics can


(similarities between parent and combine in different ways, which
offspring) result in variation is the reason why siblings inherit
(differences)? the same characteristics but are
not identical to each other.
Well, most living things are the result
of reproduction, so they have two Even identical twins that share the
parents. You inherit the exact same combination of DNA
characteristics from both parents but are not 100% the same! This is
the way they combine makes the because genes develop separately
offspring unique. when the twins are embryos or
during later development.
