Human beings have a variety of traits. How are they transmitted through generations? Are all the traits present in a single DNA or do they have separate arrangements for the same?
Humans have traits passed on through the process of sexual reproduction - specifically Meiosis, and each trait is different based on the DNA arrangements.
After going through meiosis to divide into four gamete cells, each with one of each number and sex chromosome, each parent takes one of their somatic cells with duplicated chromosomes so that there are four of each. When that gamete combines with that of their partner, the child will receive half of their chromosomes from mom and half from dad.
Every trait is unique, but many are shared by several chromosomal regions. Although these variations affect the same characteristic, the nucleotide sequence and DNA vary from person to person due to trait variation (e.g., changes in eye or hair color).

Human traits are transmitted through generations via DNA, which is composed of genes. Genes are units of heredity that carry instructions for specific traits. Different traits are determined by different combinations of genes, and these genes can be located on the same or different chromosomes. Therefore, traits can be inherited independently of each other. Some traits are controlled by a single gene, while others are influenced by multiple genes and environmental factors.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
