Explanation:

Heredity refers to the genotype(genetic makeup) of an organism. The study of heredity is called genetics and Gregor Mendel is considered to be a founder of this branch of science. He worked with the garden pea and did years of research involving traits like height, seed shape and flower color, among others.

Heredity, the sum of all biological processes by which particular characteristics are transmitted from parents to their offspring. Both aspects of heredity can be explained by genes, the functional units of heritable material that are found within all living cells.

Importantce of heredity :

Heredity is important to all living organisms as it determines which traits are passed from parent to child. Successful traits are more frequently passed along and over time can change a species. Changes in traits can allow organisms to adapt to specific environments for better rates of survival.

Example of heredity is your possibility of having breast cancer based on family history.
