P7: Nature V's Nurture by Traceyann Ferguson https://padlet.com/traceyann_ferguson/5yu189y3macbufla This week we will start to think more closely about what causes different things to happen in our world - genetic or environmental factors. To begin, we will investigate what genetic and environmental factors are and how they influence the world and the people that live in it. en-us 2021-05-11 12:26:04 UTC 2026-01-30 19:33:59 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f30e.png DEBATE: Nurture traceyann_ferguson https://padlet.com/traceyann_ferguson/5yu189y3macbufla/wish/1512996701 If you think Nurture (environment) is the biggest influencer on who you are as a person, write your answer here.
You must:
- State WHY you think nurture is more important in the debate about what makes us us.

First look at the definitions below.

Nature: refers to all of the genes and hereditary factors that influence who we are—from our physical appearance to our personality characteristics.

Nurture: refers to all the environmental variables that impact who we are, including our early childhood experiences, how we were raised, our social relationships, and our surrounding culture (Cherry, K. 2019).

Now watch the video. As you watch, think about your answer to the question - Do you think we as humans are more influenced by genetics (nature) or environment (nurture)?
