Inherited and Learned Behaviors
BY: Telina Kirschke. Inherited traits are determined by parts of our cells called genes. The genes are passed down from parents to their offspring.
Genetics. What is Genetics? Genetics is the study of genes and heredity (passing of traits from generation to generation). Genes carry the information.

Inherited Traits and Learned Behaviors By: Cammie’s Corner

Inherited traits Physical features Every living thing has traits that make it unique. A trait is a quality or characteristic of a living thing Physical features The color of an animals’ fur The shape of a leaf

Growing towards sunlight (plant behavior) Behaviors. A behavior is a way in which living things responds to its surroundings. Building a nest (animal behavior) Growing towards sunlight (plant behavior)

Organisms get traits in different ways. Inherited traits- traits are passed from parent to offspring, or young before the offspring are born. Heredity- the passing of traits from parents to offspring before birth

Both physical features and behaviors can be inherited. having four legs or fur. Barking Color of eyes and hair shape of your nose. Ability to laugh or cry (humans) Rolling your tongue.

Like animals, plants inherit ways of responding to their surroundings. Roots grow down toward water. Stems grow up towards the sun Leaves grow toward the light Vines may climb up a fence or tree trunk. Leaves of some plants close up if something touches it.

A behavior is a way of acting These can be inherited too; they are called instincts Babies are born with specific reflexes to help them survive

Animal instincts: When the weather becomes cold, animals prepare for winter by instinct Some head for warmer climates, others hibernate Birds protect their eggs and babies Frogs are not born with this instinct They leave their eggs to hatch (or die)

Instincts www.educationdiscovery.com

Heredity BrainPop Video These traits are passed from parents to offspring by genes. Genes are tiny pieces of material that contain hereditary information Genes are located in cells and control how traits develop in a living thing. Because of genes, offspring resemble their parents in many ways. Apple trees produce more apple trees Heredity BrainPop Video

XY XX Baby XY Father Mother Most plants and animals get their genes from two parents. Half comes from one parent and half comes from another parent. traits are not exactly like those of either parent. Genes come in pairs Fathers have XY genes, and mothers have XX genes One gene from the mom combines with one gene from the dad Father Mother XY XX Baby XY

Learned Behaviors A learned behavior is a skill that an animal develops after it is born.  Genes do not control learned behaviors. are not passed from parents to their offspring.

Humans and animals learn from adults and their experience. Mother bear shows her cubs how to fish or find berries. Bird may teach its babies to fly. A young horse may learn to stay away from an electric fence. Knowing a language. You learned to speak by listening to your parents or other people. knowing how to ride a bike

Examples of Inherited and Learned Behaviors Inherited Traits Learned Behaviors A girl had brown eyes A girl can read Spanish A boy has long fingers A boy can play the piano A bird knows where to find a feeder. A bird eats seeds A dog knows the sound of it’s owner’s voice. A dog has pointed ears

Like learned behaviors, some physical traits are not inherited. If you cut your hand and get a scar A bird with a broken wing A tree may be bent by the wind or scarred by lightning

Discussion Question: Think about your own traits. What are three traits that you inherited? What are three of your traits that are learned behaviors?

Vocabulary – Words to Know Trait: a quality or characteristic of a living thing. Behavior: a way in which a living thing responds to its surroundings. Inherited trait: a trait that is passed from parents to offspring before the offspring is born. Heredity: the passing of traits from parents to offspring before birth. Gene: a tiny piece of material that contains hereditary information and control how traits develop in offspring. Learned behavior: a skill that an animal develops after it is born.
