So Who Plays the Bigger Role Nature or Nurture?









Influencing intelligence is largely a combination of genetic background along with a fertilized environment for intellectual growth. It seems that both factors based on current findings and experiments play an enormous role in determining a person’s intelligence. Genetics obviously makes up the foundation for intelligence. Environment on the other hand plays the big role in whether or not intelligence expands upon that foundation. There is no way to say which has the greater role in intelligence but it is hard to believe that a high or low level of intelligence can be obtained without the influence of both factors. In conclusion the equation is simple you cannot have one without the other.
