Document Summary
Genetic influences on behavior: mice: do(cid:374)"t groo(cid:373) the(cid:373, controlled by mutation by dbh gene produces noepinephrine. If females are injected with norepinephrine on difference. Developing embryo can imprint on habitat this is not heritable this is early aqusition of information: human verbal ability, environmental related different parents. 28 72% of variability is influences by the environment. 35: 0. 08 low correlation between theirs and birth parents verbal ability virtually no relationship, spatial ability, whatever genotype the child brings has no effect on what parents are raising it, monozygotic twins reared apart and together. Artificial selection experiments: drosophila: slight differences in behavior, let eggs hatch and watch the adults crawl in different directions is there a difference in how they each respond to gravity and is that heritable. Ie: stressful birth = within 4 generation can show the same expression of genes.
