Answer: the correct option is A ( The spotted coat is an INHERITED TRAIT, and the ability to perform tricks is a LEARNED TRAIT.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dog is one of the first domesticated animal by man because it has the ability to perceive information and retain it as knowledge for applying to solve problems.

Therefore, the ability to perform tricks is a LEARNED TRAIT. This is so because they have acquired the ability to understand and communicate with humans, and they are uniquely attuned to human behaviors.

INHERITED TRAIT is a trait that can be passed down from one generation to another which are found in genes within the strands of dogs DNA. Some of the inheritable traits includes the following:

- coat color,

- ear type, and.

- tail style.

Therefore the spotted coat is an INHERITED TRAIT
