Main Post
(10 points) question/prompt:
The nature/nurture debate involves whether human behavior is determined by the environment, either prenatal or during a person’s life, or by a person’s genes. While acknowledging that both “nature” (heredity) and “nurture” (environment) play a role in determining human behavior, you are to take a position on one or the other.
Respond to this discussion by stating which you believe plays a more significant role in a person’s life, explain why. You are to back up your opinion with the best evidence that you can think of—from personal observation or experience, or from what you have learned about human behavior from research, reading in chapter 1, and/or video & reading in chapter 2 —to support your position.
Response
