Wikipedia definition
2. HeredityHeredity is the passing of traits to offspring (from its parent or ancestors).

Through heredity, variations exhibited by individuals can accumulate and cause some species to evolve. The study of heredity in biology is called genetics, which includes the field of epigenetics.
