Solution


Q.

Characters that are transmitted from parents to offspring during reproduction show:
1 only similarities with parents.  
2 only variations with parents.  
3 both similarities and variations with parents.  
4 neither similarities nor variations.  

Ans.

(3)

In sexual reproduction, the offspring are not identical to the parents or to one another. This is because the offspring receive some genes from mother and some from father.
Due to the mixing of genes on re-establishment of number of chromosome in various different combinations, the offspring show both similarities and variations with characters of parents.
