In view of modern gastric; explain why Lamarck's theory of evolution is inacceptable. (b) A cow produced a calf with five legs. What is the genetic term used for such a calf.

14. a) In view of modern genetics, Lamarck's theory of evolution is unacceptable because acquired characteristics (changes an organism gains during its lifetime) are not inherited. Only changes to the germline DNA (sperm or egg cells) can be passed on to offspring, and acquired traits do not alter this genetic material. b) The genetic term used for such a calf is a mutant or a mutation.
