Acquired Traits An acquired trait is a trait that that an animal, plant or person develops through interactions in their environment. Scars on a manatee Leaves turned brown Pierced ears

Can you identify the acquired traits and the inherited traits?

Now its your turn…. Let’s make an Inherited traits chart & Acquired traits chart. You will need 1 sheet of copy paper.

Now its your turn…. Write Inherited traits on one side of your paper in the center. Put a circle around it. Do the same for Acquired traits on the back side of your paper.

Your paper should look like this…. Inherited traits

The back of your paper should look like this…. Acquired Traits

Now its your turn…. Now you will write at least 3 or more things for each side. Write it neatly. Draw a circle or oval around each one and connect it with a line to the circle in the middle.

For example your paper should look like this…. Inherited Traits Eye color

The back of your paper should look like this…. Acquired traits Pierced Ears

You may work on this within your group. You have 10 minutes. Now its your turn…. You may work on this within your group. You have 10 minutes.

Exit Ticket

Explain the difference between an inherited and acquired trait. Give one example of each. Your exit ticket will look like this but be smaller. Answer the question and give examples.
