Nature-Nurture question. Apex.
The best way to test the effect of genetic versus environment is to conduct studies in identical twins because one can never hold environment perfectly constant, but identical twins are perfect genetic matches. Studies show that behavioral traits like sexual preference, depression, schizophrenia and other cognitive and behavioral disorders and even preferences are mostly shaped by environment, and have a very minor genetic component.
Because genes do not account for every trait or characteristic. Some characteristics are influenced by environment.
dBecause the animal is adapted to its environment. :)

genes and the environment
A peculiar environment can affect genes and their expressions
Characteristics are determined by the interaction between genes and the environment. Genes provide the blueprint for traits, but how they are expressed can be influenced by external factors such as diet, lifestyle, and experiences. This interaction between genes and the environment is known as gene-environment interaction.

Interactions between genes and the environment can influence phenotype by modifying gene expression levels. Environmental factors like diet, stress, and exposure to pollutants can impact gene regulation, leading to different phenotypic outcomes. For example, identical twins with the same genetic makeup can exhibit differences in traits like height or disease susceptibility due to environmental influences.
