Answer:

Biological determinism.

Explanation:

Biological determinism (also known as genetic determinism, biologism, or biodeterminism) is the idea that human characteristics and behavior are exclusively determined at conception by some aspect of biology, as Alain thinks, by genes and hormones. Meaning that environmental, social, and cultural factors have no effect in a person’s life.
