An acquired trait is the character developed in an individual as a result of environmental influence. These traits are not coded by the DNA of a living organism and therefore cannot be passed on to future generations.

Ex.

  • Reduction in the weight of an organism due to starvation 
  • Removal of tail in mice by surgery 
  • Development of muscles in athletes

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.

The plants can get rid of excess of water by the process of Transpiration 

The process of respiration in plants involves using the sugars produced during photosynthesis plus oxygen to produce energy for plant growth.

Translocation is a biological mechanism involving the transfer of water and other soluble nutrients from one part of the plant to another through the xylem and phloem, which occurs in all plants.
