Among the characteristics listed, the following can be inherited:

  • freckles on the skin: Freckles can be influenced by genetic factors, making them an inherited trait.

The other characteristics, such as the ability to play the piano or the appetite of a puppy, are influenced more by environmental factors and experiences rather than being directly inherited. The length of hair in a human can have some hereditary components, but it is also significantly influenced by other factors, so it is less straightforward compared to freckles.
