Inherited traits are traits which can be passed from one generation to the other through genes.eg. tallness of a person
Acquired traits are experiences of the life of a person cannot be passed over generations.eg.low weight
Acquired traits cannot be inherited by the progeny because they are not affecting the genes of a person.
