Detailed explanation-1: -An inherited trait is a characteristic that is passed from parents to their babies (offspring). A behavior is a way of acting. Inherited behaviors are called instincts. Learned behaviors are not inherited but learned from others.
Detailed explanation-2: -Inherited traits, such as your eye color, are a part of your genetics and DNA from birth. They are passed down from parent to offspring, and therefore cannot be changed. Learned Behaviors are developed after birth and can be affected or changed. For example: Playing the violin is a learned behavior.
Detailed explanation-3: -Both of their parents pass these traits to them, and they become a mix of their parents. Hair color, eye color, fur patterns are all examples of physical inherited traits. Behavioral inherited traits can include aspects of personality, learning style, vigilance, and desire to hunt.
