Lamarck represented the hypothesis that an organism can pass on acquired characteristics during its lifetime to its offspring. This theory was rejected, but nowadays discoveries in the field of epigenetics and somatic hypermutation confirmed part of it and highlighted the possible inheritance of behavioral traits acquired by the previous generation.
