Nature vs. Nurture debate

The Nature vs. Nurture term was first used by Francis Galton.  He was an English Victorian polymath. He was inspired by the book, "Origin of Species" that was written by his cousin, Charles Darwin. The narture vs. nurture debate talks about the importance of someones innate qualities versus personal experiences in causing or determining individual diferences in someones behavior and physical traits. This debate is very controvertial. Behavior genetics are known as "Nurture". Shared family factors is an example of the  "Nurture" term.While "Nature" term is genetical traits. Things that are passed on to you by your ancestors such as hair and eye color. Nature can be thought of as genetics and nurture can be seen as the enviorment someone is in.
