Eye color hair color and diseases can be inherited because of genes. Memories can't be inherited. Memories are stored in brain cells and are not "part" of gametes which when fused and undergo development to from a baby. Hence it is definitely not possible

Memories are created, stored and retrieved by the neural pathways in our brains. They are not stored in the DNA, and require multiple cells and are therefore not even part of a component of a single cell. Since conception is the joining of the egg and the sperm into a single cell, and neither the DNA nor any single component of such a cell is capable of storing a memory, it is not possible for a child to biologically inherit a memory.

No, memories are created every second. It is like skin color, it is inherited but tanning is not.

No. Memories are acquired during life time and "stored" in brain. They do not influence your genetic makeup, so there is no way to for your children to inherit them. Eye color etc. is defined in your genes, so you do pass it to your children.

People have been trying to answer that question for years. Do a select few have past life memories...de javu..or genetic memory? I only wish I had the answer. And no matter what anyone says science has not come to a definitive conclusion.

Inheritance occurs through genes and memories having nothing to do with genes.

No, those are genetic. Memories are your own. I think instincts are inherited survival tools which are genetic also.

no never. according to scientists the memory or muscles will not be transfered from one generation to the other.

no, but in the case of inherited behavior it can be argueably so
