There’s also epigenetics, which could be described as a very limited version of Lamarckism that actually holds water. That’s stretching definitions, but it does involve lifestyle conditions in one generation that affect future generations. So far, it’s mostly restricted to things like famine in one generation leading to increased fat storage in future generations, iirc.
