What was the problem with Lamarck's theory of inheritance of traits?
It's core principle is that individual organisms can pass characteristics acquired during their lifetime to offspring; for example, a thin man works out his whole life and develops large muscles, then has a son who will also have the large muscles. However current evolutionary theory dictates that only the genetic information that determines the genetic potential of an organism is passed on to offspring - in the example, his dad was thin so he will be too - so acclimation within this genetic potential (What Lamarckian theory would suggest is passed on) is not.Of course as with most things within evolutionary theory that's just the current thinking, recent developments in Epigenetics for example suggest Lamarckian inheritance or aspects of it may actually exist within nature to some extent.
