What factors other than genes can impact heritability? Check all that apply

Answer
A
age
B
inheritance
C
lifestyle
D
environment
E
Punnett squares

Explanation

Heritability describes how much differences in a trait within a group are associated with genetic differences, and estimates can be affected by age, lifestyle, and environmental conditions. Inheritance is the passing of genes from parents, so it is genetic rather than a factor other than genes. Punnett squares are tools for predicting possible genetic outcomes, not factors that affect heritability.
