Inherited traits are characteristics that are passed down from parents to their offspring through genes. Traits that are typically considered inherited include:

1. Physical characteristics (like eye color, hair type, height)
2. Behavioral traits (such as certain instincts or patterns of behavior)
3. Susceptibility to certain diseases or conditions (genetic predispositions)

Traits that do NOT describe inherited traits might include:

- Environmental adaptations (like tan skin from sun exposure)
- Skills acquired through learning (such as music talent or language proficiency)
- Non-genetic health issues (like illnesses caused by infections)
