No. Traits developed during a parents life time are acclamations to the immediate environment and are not heritable. Only mutations in the germ line, recombination in the germ line are heritable.

This question is far to vague to fully answer, but some of the traits that are passed from parents to offspring include:

Hair color

Eye color

skin pigmentation (to a degree, this is a phenome, not a gnome, and therefore can actually change during a person's lifetime)

Also, certain genetic diseases are passed through the genes including Sickle cell anemia, and many others

For a codominant traiit do the offspring of identical parents always look like the parent why?

No, the offspring of identical parents would not always look like the parents because everyone has dominant and recessive traits, where the recessive traits do not show but is still in DNA. That said, recessive traits not shown in parents can be passed on as dominant traits to offspring - making offspring not always identical to its parents. (this is also called genetic variation)
