Nature v/s Nurture....

This is a long discussion about what defines a human being: How much of what you are is determined by your genes (nature), and how much is determined by the environment in which you grow (nurture)?

In other words "innate qualities" v/s "personal experience".

Nowadays almost everyone agrees that it has to be a mixture of both. But where one ends and the other starts is still discussion material.

Epigenetics states that the environment can influence the way certain genes are expressed. What this reveals about the nature vs. nurture debate is that it may not be a battle between the two. These two influencing components may work hand in hand all through out our lives, making it more like nature via nurture. We may inherit certain genes, but the environment may be the deciding factor when it comes to which genes will be expressed and how strongly.
