Answer:

Characteristic 2 is a trait that can be inherited

Step-by-step explanation:

Characteristic 1 is a scar due to an injury, injuries cannot be passed down from generation to generation. Characteristic 2 on the other hand, can be passed down from one generation to another because the shape of a person's face is a phenotypic trait.
