There was really no concern for the environment as there is nowadays. European settlers treated the environment like they did in Europe.
the genes play a big roll in the offspring. Genes are important because they make you look like your parents
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.
Upbringing, if parental care is meant, influences personality little, but other things, like overall happiness, are important products of parental care. The environment, especially the unique environment, is as important as the genes in all human traits. It is not a dichotomy and it is nature via nurture. What we measure is the squared variance from the mean, the differences in influence. We do not measure and can not measure the positive weight of either genes or environment influencing people.
Genes come in pairs because Genes are in chromosomes and chromosomes come in pairs as well.
the genotypeThe genotype (genes) of an organism determines its phenotype (what it looks and acts like). The phenotype can also be slightly influenced by the organism's environment. For example, if a human inherits genes to be taller than average, but has poor nutrition as a child, he won't be as tall as his genes had coded.
Genes and alleles are related because alleles are inside a gene. Genes are made up by alleles. A gene is DNA. The allele is like piece of DNA inside a gene.
Our genes decide what characteristics we inherit, but the environment can affect how these inherited characteristics develop, like a person could be tall but in their childhood have a poor diet which cause poor growth.
Because you and your relatives have several of the same genes than you and your friends would have.
It's in the genes and the wiring of the brain. Because men crave power.
People have features that are seen in the parents because of the genes that have been passed on from one generation to another. It's like some characteristics and facial features have been combined to make a human being like you. But there are some factors that may change the way you look like the environment, circumstances, etc.
