XML namespace question

I have a quick XML namespace question:

Does a sub element of a namespace qualified element inherit
the namespace from its parent?

e.g.

<X:parent xmlns:X="MyNamespace">
   <child>data</child>
</X:parent>

Is element child considered to be implicitly qualified by
namespace X(MyNamespace)?  or is it considered to have
no namespace qualification?

Thanks in advance.
