31 Aug explain how both nature (genes) and nurture (environment) contribute to development
Lifespan development is an interdisciplinary field because understanding human behavior is an interdisciplinary endeavor. Using material from any of the chapters we have studied, explain how both nature (genes) and nurture (environment) contribute to development in at least two domains or aspects of development (for example, cognitive, physical, social or emotional). It is known, for example, that intelligence is about 50% genetics and 50% environment….but how do we know this? Your response for this question should be 3 – 4 double-spaced pages. Be specific!
