To Kill a Mockingbird

Examples of inherited behaviors.

How would I describe the inheritance of the behaviours? For example: some people are inherently decent, like Atticus, and some seem inherently evil, like Bob Ewell.

This really depends on what you consider inherited. Is it genetic? is it environmental? Each character represents their historic personal experience. I'm not sure how Atticus became so enlightened and Bob Ewell became such a wretch but I suppose a combination of environment and some hereditary traits might have something to do with it.
