Answer 2

Acquired traits

Explanation:

(c) Assertion is true,but reason is false

• The given assertion is true because acquired traits are type of traits which an individual acquires during a lifetime
• These traits may be acquired due to an environmental influence
• The given reason is wrong because acquired traits do not affect the genotype hence there is no change in accuracy of DNA
• If the genotype(change in DNA) is affected then it is called an inherited trait
