5. Traits definition Traits are characteristics we inherit from our parents. Some traits are common in a population (our class will be our population) while others are not. Every person has a different combination of traits that makes them unique.

6. Traits More common traits are not necessarily better. Sometimes traits just show up more frequently. Dominant or recessive traits have very little to do with frequency. Therefore, dominant traits are not necessarily more common, and recessive traits are not necessarily rare in a population.

7. Traits Discussion Be prepared to answer the following questions based on the class graph. What traits are the most common in the class? What traits are the least common in the class?
