Why are there differences in siblings if they have the same parents?
Why are there differences in siblings if they have the same parents?
When siblings are born, they have different genetic make-ups and inherit different traits from their parents. One child might be born with red hair like the mother and another with brown hair like their father. They may both be tall like their father and have the same shaped eyes like their mother. There will be similarities between the offspring, but no two will be exactly alike because of the differences in the genes they inherit.

The gorillas in the picture look very similar, but there is a difference in their hair color.
Why would the baby gorilla look slightly different than one of its parents?

Why would the baby gorilla look slightly different than one of its parents?
The baby gorilla looks different and has darker hair than the parent because it is a mix of both parents' genes and traits. The mother may have more brown/red hair while the father has very dark hair to the baby takes more after the father. Every child born is a mix of their two parents, some genes and traits from each will be instilled in the baby. As plants and animals grow older, they also change in appearance and may start to look like one parent more than the other.

There are variations of inherited traits that exist in groups of similar organisms because they have different inherited information.
There are variations of inherited traits that exist in groups of similar organisms because they have different inherited information.
The statement presented is accurate and true. There are variations or differences in the traits of animals, even within the same groups and families. Each offspring inherits different information from their parents, so there are slight differences between them all.

This statement is false and untrue. Plants and animals inherit their traits and genes from their parents. Each offspring is a mix of both parents and will display characteristics from their mother and father. No two plants or animals are precisely the same because they each have unique traits.

Plants and animals inherit their traits and genes from their parents. Each offspring is a mix of both parents and will display characteristics from their mother and father. The adult dogs are all the same species, color, patterns, and breed, so they will pass on traits that will cause the puppy to look similar.

Why does the kitten in the photo below look different from its mother?
The kitten looks different from the parent because it is a mix of both parents' genes and traits. The mother has orange, white, and brown fur while the kitten only has orange and white. It is possible the father was more orange than other colors, and these genes were the strongest. Every child born is a mix of their two parents, some genes and traits from each will be instilled in the baby. As plants and animals grow older, they also change in appearance and may start to look like one parent more than the other.

Nevin's cats recently had kittens. The father is black and white while the mother has orange and white stripes. The kittens are a variation of black, white, orange, spots, and stripes. Why is there such a difference in all of the kitten's appearances?

Nevin's cats look different because there is a variation in their genes and traits. The kittens each inherit half of their genes from each parent, so they are a mix of the two. No two organisms have identical DNA, so they will not look exactly like their mother or their father, but rather a combination of the two.
