Abehavior or characteristic that is altered and passed from one generation to another generation is a(n)

The correct answer for the question is- An inherited trait.

Inherited traits are those features or characteristics of an organism that are passed from one generation to the next generation ( such as eye color, skin tone, hair color) in the form of genes ( segment of DNA corresponding to particular protein, which depicts specific trait of an organism).

If the genetic material ( DNA) is altered during its transfer that is if any change in its nucleotide sequence ( also called mutation) occurs, then it will exhibit in the form of an altered phenotype in the next generation.

answer: angiosperms

dicots

angiosperms are highly evolved plants, they produce seeds which are enclosed within in a carple. these are the largest group of plants on earth. they include trees, shrubs, herbs and small flowering plants. angiosperms exhibit a flowering stage in their life cycle. the flower serves the function of reproduction and fruit formation in majority of angiosperms. dicot is the term used to describe flowering plants that have two seed leaves. dicots are plants which develop seeds which split into two parts called cotyledons. each cotyledon contains one embryo.

here, a small purple flower development indicates that the plant belongs to angiosperms and having two embryonic leaves indicates it belongs to dicots.
