Inherited Behavior

Real World Example

Imagine how you instinctively know how to balance on a bicycle after years of not riding one. Just like how your muscle memory kicks in without conscious thought, inherited behaviors are actions organisms perform naturally, without needing to learn them. In both cases, the underlying 'instructions'—whether it's muscle memory for cycling or genetic coding for behavior—exist inherently and guide the action without prior learning or practice.
