Explain why most animals are born without harmful inherited traits?
Most animals do not have harmful inherited traits because natural selection tends to eliminate genes that are detrimental to survival and reproduction. Over time, individuals with harmful traits are less likely to pass on their genes, resulting in a population with fewer harmful inherited traits. Additionally, genetic variability and recombination during reproduction help dilute the prevalence of harmful traits in offspring.
