👉 The word "are" in English is a preposition which indicates that something or someone belongs to some group, belonging to "one", "the", "those", etc., as well as to someone else. In English, "are eyes inherited from mother or father?" can be translated into "Do you think your eyes are inherited from your mother or father?" A few definitions of this expression might include: 1. Inherited - something that is passed down from one generation to another. For example, in a family where both parents are healthy and fit, it could be considered that the child inherits these qualities. 2. Eyeball inheritance - A concept used to explain why people have different eye shapes or sizes based on their birthplace. It's not clear if this expression is often applied to the term "eye" itself as a gender-specific term, as it seems to imply both genders can inherit an eye shape regardless of the genetic origin. 3. Eye color inheritance - Inherited from parents based on the color of the eyes, whether inherited from one parent or another. In simpler terms, it refers to how genes and genetics play a role in determining eye color or size, particularly in relation to race or family structure.
