Acquired characteristics are non-inherited characteristics which are learned throughout life time but are not passed on from generation to generations.
Acquired characteristics have no influence over the reproductive organs or genetic material. There re learned throughout the life by experience and subjective interest in a particular thing.
For example: traits like painting, swimming, dancing etc.
