Although “inheritable” and “heritable” are synonyms, these words can be used in different contexts. Both words mean something that can be passed on from a person to another.
但是,在生物学上,二个词还是有差别的:
inheritable is something instantly produced by genes, 由基因产生的遗传因素
heritable is anything transferred from your parents. 从父母那里传来的东西
