Heritable

Natural selection main Natural selection is the evolutionary process by which heritable traits that increase an individual's fitness become more common, and heritable traits that decrease an individual's fitness become less common.

In reality, as Rushton sets out in his Nations and Nationalism essay, similarity is higher the more heritable the genetic trait is.

Property agent Graham + Sibbald is inviting offers over £499,000 for the heritable interest in the property, and hailed the sale as a “fantastic opportunity” for the right buyer, declaring the current owners had “poured love into the property”.

The heritable interest in the property is available for sale, which means outright ownership.

The study, titled 'The Economic Impact of Heritable Physical Traits: Hot Parents, Rich Kid?', delved into the relationship between parents' attractiveness and their offspring's financial success.

The propensity to mature early and breed early is actually highly heritable, but can't be forced onto the wrong type of cattle.

This proves that something like hunger is heritable in various degrees.

Costa said future studies could look at the health condition of grandsons of the POWs to see if the effect is heritable across generations.

Scientists also will check DNA sequences in healthy cells for any germline or heritable mutations that increase other cancers' risk.

The colour of a person’s hair is one of the most heritable features of their appearance, with studies on twins suggesting that genetics explains up to 97% of hair colour.

We’ve known that ADHD is highly heritable – estimates the heritability as 70-80 percent.

A consensus definition of the concept of epigenetic trait as "stably heritable phenotype resulting from changes in a chromosome without alterations in the DNA sequence" was formulated at a Cold Spring Harbor meeting in 2008.

Advanced techniques Quantitative studies of heritable traits throw light on the question.

All of these traits are heritable, and will determine if the foal will be a success in its chosen discipline.

Bases are in the centre, surrounded by phosphate–sugar chains in a double helix Evolution in organisms occurs through changes in heritable traits—the inherited characteristics of an organism.

Because the phenotype of a cell or individual is affected by which of its genes are transcribed, heritable transcription states can give rise to epigenetic effects.

But traits that reflect the underlying talents and temperaments—how proficient with language a person is, how religious, how liberal or conservative—are partially heritable.

De Vries was also one of the researchers who made Mendel's work well-known, believing that Mendelian traits corresponded to the transfer of heritable variations along the germline.

Each observation suggests that personality is heritable to a certain extent.

Epigenetic Options seeAlso Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene activity that are not caused by changes in the DNA sequence, often a result of environmental or dietary damage to the histone receptors within the cell.
