Yes, it can. If your parents have depression, you are two to three times more likely to suffer from depression than others.
There is not a genetic component to depression yet discovered. It is possible for it to be linked to genetics, but as of right now there is no clear link to genetics.
There is no hard proof, though studies have been done to suggest there are specific genes that could indicate a higher chance of developing a depressive disorder later on.

Yes, that's true! :)
Possibly. Manic depression, also known as bipolar, does run in families, and therefore, can be inherited.
5 common things that can cause depression are brain chemistry changes, hormonal imbalances, tragic life changing events such as the loss of a loved one, financial problems, or stress. Depression can also be an inherited trait.
Manic depression is also known as bipolar disorder. A person is born with susceptablity to the disorder. It often runs in families and can be inherited. But the trigger is from the environment. Something, like a relationship, causes anxiety or insecurity. This in turn starts the manic depression.
He had tried other jobs and failed. As a painter nobody wanted his paintings. And he had inherited some mental disorder from his mother's family.
Inherited conditions cannot be changed (at present), but there are effective treatments for anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder. Please see a mental health professional.
INHERITED CHARACTERISTICS
There is no definitie genetic link that confirms that anorexia is inherited. There are theories that it could be an inherited trait. Other theories propose that a likelihood may be inherited (that is, a person may be more likely than someone else to develop an eating disorder based on a predisposition to other factor-causes like depression or BDD). Many medical professionals believe that it is a "learned" behaviour. That is, people with family members who suffer from anorexia may themselves develop anorexia not because of genetics but because they copy habits or actions of family members.
Not all depression is caused by inherited factors, but there is a very strong hereditary link. This could be due to a tendency to inherit low seratonin levels, which is one of the causes of depression.
I think you mean inherited and inherited traits - in which case yes - they're the same.
