The video explains the difference between inherited and learned behaviors in organisms. Inherited behaviors, or instincts, are innate and do not require learning, such as a turtle retracting its head when scared or birds building nests. Learned behaviors are acquired through experience, like reading, writing, or animals performing tricks.
