Why can genes be considered derived characters?

Sagot :

Genes can be considered as derived charecters because they have information in form of proteins or DNA which decides the charecteristic of offsprings.

A derived character refers to a particular character that is shared by members of a particular population. Genes are considered to be derived characters because THEY ARE TRANSFER FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION FROM PARENTS TO THEIR OFFSPRING. Genes are derived from the DNA molecule of the parents and these are passed to their offspring during the process of cell division in reproduction.
