Traditional debate revolves around contributions of nature vs nurture essentially meaningless and functionally useless . Dna codes for hereditary characteristics at moment of conception. Nature is genetics; nurture is environment, interactions. Nature > eye color, height, anomalies, etc. Ex) mom talking about your body, 10 years later you are still concerned about your appearance. Ex) coach telling you play like a girl, 50 years later it is still with you. Both nature and nurture are important; constantly influence one another. Neither one is more important than the other. Environment shaped by genetics and vice versa. Because everyone is different, people experience different lives.
