    Lesson 4 CSS Inheritance

    Uploaded by

    Andi Medellin
    Inheritance is a mechanism in CSS where styles applied to parent elements are automatically applied to child elements as well. Not all CSS properties are inherited in this way, with color and font-size being some of the common properties that are inherited from parent to child elements to create a cascading style. Inheritance can help increase efficiency by reducing the need to repetitively write CSS rules that apply the same styles.
