Heredity is the passing on of characteristics from one generation to the next.
It is the reason why offspring look like their parents.
Acquired traits are characteristics that are gained after birth like dribbling the soccer ball.
Inherited traits are traits that are genetically transmitted from parents to offspring. Inherited traits get passed down from generation to the next like your hair color.
