Answer 1

Answer:

nature-nurture question

Explanation:

The physical characteristics of an organism are passed on to its descendants through the mechanism elucidated by Mendel, still in the nineteenth century. But what about behavior? Is behavior, especially human behavior, also subject to these mechanisms? Anyway, would our personality be the result of nature (written in DNA) or of our creation (tradition and learning)? This explains the "nature-nurture question".

If a baby were handed over for adoption by an English-speaking family and adopted by a Spanish-speaking family, you would expect the baby to learn to speak Spanish. If so, it would offer insight into the question of creating nature about what leads to an individual's behavior. In this case, we realize that in the nature x creation discussion there are no winners, for we have found that nature acts through creation.
