Inherited traits are those traits which can be passed from one generation to the next generation. These involve changes in the DNA.
Acquired traits - An acquired trait is a physical characteristic of an organism that is not passed down to offspring genetically. It is not coded in the organism's DNA and is a product of the environment's influence on the organism. These traits are acquired during the lifetime.
The acquired traits are not passed to the next generation. For example, if a person has increased the muscle strength and size by exercising regularly, then he/she cannot pass the same to their offspring.
