請觀察空格後方緊接著的介系詞結構「from parents to children（從父母到子女）」，並結合前文提到的「inherited feature（遺傳特徵）」。在文章的生物遺傳脈絡下，這個動作描述的是特徵在兩代之間發生了什麼樣的過程？

太棒了，選 transfer 完全切中核心！
遺傳特徵的傳遞
這句話的主詞位置需要一個能與介系詞片語「from parents to children」搭配的名詞。前文提到酒窩是家族遺傳特徵（inherited feature），在此語境下，表達特徵「從父母到子女的傳遞／轉移」，名詞 transfer 不僅語意最精準，其後方搭配 from... to... 的用法也非常自然流暢。
