Life is like a card game. The hand that is -represents determinism; How to play it is free will. -India Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru.
Much has been written and discussed about of what determines the behavior of a person, genes or environment? Are our genes responsible for what we do in our lives day to day ? Or environment plays a dominant role in our behavior? This innate "nature-" theory is a perennial topic of discussion.
The basic unit of inheritance in an organism is its gene. Genes are responsible for passing genetic traits to the next generation. The genes encoding script decides which makes the gene for the construction and maintenance of cells of an organism while non - coding sequence decides when the gene is active.
The theory of the nature
The theory of the nature scientists think that people behave as they do due to their genetic predisposition. Natural eye and hair colour of skin, body structure, disease and characteristics as interest, personality, temperament and sexual habits qualities are also encoded in genes. Human behaviour is less controlled environment of free will, but most genes carry. Whatever incidents occur and traits is being practised generation after generation get printed in genes and become the next generation to some extent.
The theory of Nurture
Some scientific conclusion that there are genetic tendencies, but ultimately it doesn't matter because environmental factors and their upbringing that determine the behavior of the people. A gene may increase the inclination towards a particular behavior, but does not have people do things unless it provides a favourable environment. If a resistance of its genetic tendencies environment provides people, are more likely to behave according to their upbringing.
Nature or Nurture?
Issues such as criminal conduct, infidelity, sexual preferences have been attributed by the theorists of nature to genes.
"We are survival machines", writes Richard Dawkins in the selfish gene, "blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes robot vehicles". And "... genes propagate in the genetic patrimony to the jump from one body to body through sperm or eggs..."
If we believe that this, and people already not accountable for their actions, how is society possible? On the other hand we cannot justify criminal conduct by simply saying that increasingly more heat of summer or solar flare leads to increased levels of aggression and rape, as some psychologists claim?
It is believed that you as we are going higher orders in species as mammals that there is a lower instincts and better adaptability environment and behaviour in the ongoing process of survival role. Human beings have instincts less. Instead we have a great influence of our surroundings and environment substantially determines our behavior.
A study at the University of Minnesota Twins raised in different households claims that approximately 70% of the variation of IQ is due to genes behaviors. Others believe that twins isolation could never completed because they have some common factors social or cultural and communication in your environment in becoming fast this social and culturally uniform world.
There is increasing evidence of interactions between nature and education. Genes alone do not guarantee that a particular trait will prevail. Genes are said to be switched on or off by environmental interaction with our brain, reason why yoga and meditation say that the power of diseases and control or even reversed some physical processes in the body.
We cannot present evidence we have before us, conclusion one way or another in nature vs. innate debate. We must try to understand the interactions between the two. There are complex relationships between genes, proteins, hormones, food, and only further research in the future and our experiences reveal the truth.
In the context of the human search for development and success, we cannot rest our future in the thesis that genes play an important role to play, and our efforts will contribute little. Life coaches and business coaches that are more in favour of the theory of innate create events that the individual goes through its life-time to shape their perceptions, habits, personality and lifestyle. Their position is that if you exercise free will and strong determination, people are sure to control their genes and raise your personality to happiness, the self-confidence and success.
