Can a child in Naruto inherit both abilities from his parents' clans?

For example, if Ino and Sasuke had a child is there a possibility for it to
have both Uchiha's Sharingan and Yamanaka's mind transfer jutsu?

Can a child inherit both their parents' clans jutsu?


It is possible. And an example of it is given in Boruto.

In case you haven't watched Boruto yet,

Yes, a child can inherit both clans' jutsu.

This was officially explained by Masashi Kishimoto(the creator of Naruto) The
child with an Uchicha and a Hyuga as parents will have both the clans' eyes.

While Inojin is not a good example as the techniques of his father Sai were
taught to him.The Ninja art techniques are not passed via genetic inheritance.
Also, Ino's clan techniques are classified as Hidden techinques which use
Yin/Yang release which are also taught/learned not passed via genetics.

A good example would be an Uchiha + Hyuga child as answered by Kishimoto
himself -

Yes, sure.

In _Boruto_ , Sarada has the Sharingan as his father's Sharingan and also
possesses the monstrous strength his mother Sakura possesses. According to the
manga, Shikadai is also said to possess both the jutsu as his father
(Shikamaru) and mother (Temari).
