Issues on nature vs nurture

Answer 1

Questions constantly arise about the origins of various types of behavior or other characteristics. Let us say that a person likes to eat pickles. Does this person have a genetic basis that predisposes him or her to like pickles? Probably. Does this person also have life experience, probably in the form of the food that he or she was fed as a child, that predisposes him or her to like pickles? That is also probably true. Which influence is greater, genetics or experience, nature or nurture? That can be very hard to figure out.
