Passing on one's heritage, possessions, and wealth is: a. the right of the first born male in every country in the world. b. the right of the first born female in every country in the world. c. generally based on lineage, which is defined by one's culture and family. d. generally based on one's relationship with one's younger siblings.

The correct answer is C: Generally based on lineage, which is defined by one's culture and family. This is because in most of the countries, the heritage is distributed within family, giving each other a fair share if a special distribution wasn't specified before death, or giving it to the people whom the person who passed away asked for.
