Explanation
🔎 Explanation
✔️ Law of Similarity: 🔖 Related to heredity, it states that offspring tend to resemble their parents in several traits. ✔️ Law of Variation: 🔖 This law explains that children show differences (variations) from parents due to genetic recombination and mutation, an important part of heredity. ✔️ Law of Regression: 🔖 Regression towards the mean — a hereditary principle explaining how extreme traits in parents tend to become closer to the average in offspring. ❌ Law of Progression: 🔹 This law is not related to heredity. It refers to development or evolution over time (e.g., cultural or social progression) but has nothing to do with genetic inheritance.📕 Additional Information:
Heredity specifically deals with the transmission of genetic material from one generation to another, while progression deals with advancement or evolution in different aspects (not biological heredity). Different laws of heredity:- Law of Segregation
- Law of Independent Assortment
