What are the patterns in the way that traits are inherited

The correct answer is - There are five basic modes of inheritance for single-gene diseases: autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, X-linked recessive, and mitochondrial.

Explanation:

The phenotype or external trait of an individual is determined by his or her genotype which is a combination of alleles received from the individual's parents. These alleles control if a trait is “dominant” or “recessive”.

These alleles can be autosomal, for traits related to somatic cells or X-linked, traits related to sex cells of an individual. Other than this there is a mitochondrial inheritance which comes from always from the mother's cytoplasm.

children tend to take more after their grandparents more than their parents. it’s the dna you received that was passed down to you somewhere in your family. maybe one of your grandparents had/has straight hair and you might have gotten it from them.

x would be the most and the least would be y because there are more fruit   and seeds than flock z has insects
