Nature is the genetic makeup structure which determine our traits and our dominant physical features such as height, hair color, eye color. Nurture is the way our environment shapes us. Research has shown that monozygotic twins rared apart shared similar personality and intelligence than fraternal twins, which means that genes can determine our personality and intelligence to certainly extent. Adoption Studies have shown environment to play a role in shaping personality and intelligence in the early years of ones life.

Recent research places great emphasis on the interaction between nature and nature and does not pinpoint one specific influence which may determine our personalities.Both nature and nurture have an influence on our behavior, and interact with each other..There are so many factors which influence are behaviors that it is difficult to identify and isolate a few. The behavior of an individual can be seen as outcome of very complex interaction of the genetic and environmental forces.

As i agree with both the nature and nurture perspective in shaping our behaviors, i will provide examples of both. Nature Example: Extraversion trait is high in family, my sister and both by parents are highly extroverted, and i also have that trait. This is attributed to nature, as my temperament (which is genetically determined) was sociable which gave rise to extroverted personality. Nurture Example: My family environment is very open about other cultures and accepting of them and also being adventurous, growing up in this environment has made me open to other cultures and try new things.

Draw a diagram in which Nature and Nurture appear at opposite ends of a continuum. Come up with 10 traits that you can place at various locations along this continuum. So, you should have at least some traits that you believe are very (or maybe completely) influenced by genetic factors, and some traits that are similarly influenced by the environment, AND several traits that are a mishmash of these to varying degrees.
