Best Answer

There are three main fingerprint patterns: arch, loop, and whorl. However, there is variation in these patterns in each person. You may inherit a basic pattern from one of your parents, but no two people have identical prints.

Are fingerprints inherited?

No; fingerprints are not inherited. Fingerprints are unique for every person. Even identical twins do not share the same fingerprints. A Scotland Yard scientist has expressed the fact that of all the fingerprints "ever taken for any reason, we still haven't found two individuals that share the same fingerprints."Well fingerprints are not inherited but the patterns are. There have been studies that show that the fingerprint patterns of related persons are similar. The exact number, shape, and spacing of ridges changes from person to person.yes fingerprint patterns are genetic and are passed down but every ones fingerprint is unique
