Introduction
Through the years scientist have been a debating what cause the body to behave they it
does .Some people say that is genetics some say it is environment I thank that it is both
genes and environment .Have you ever wonder how you got your eye color and your
brown , black , red , and blond or how you got as tall as you have or how we are as big
as we are or as little as we are
The influence of Heredity on behavior
Heredity has been debated on your years. Heredity influence who and what we are
because of our genetic make up is inherit from our mother and father through
genes . The human body has a central control panel that has cells where genes and
chromosomes are contained .There are no genes for behavior but genes can influence
behavior such as the way we anticipate, respond, the way we look in behave. Genes
are the basic unit of heredity and is a small part of DNA and DNA is (Axia text) the
main ingredient in chromosomes. Heredity is () transfer of traits that are passed down.
Genes are lined up with chromosomes and they come in pairs that are a tiny
threadlike bodies that are a small part of DNA in which are enzymes that are encoded
with proteins that are passed from one generations to the next. Our genes come in
two pairs that are linked on to our chromosomes and we each have a dominant gene
and a recessive gene for example if a brown eyed husband causes the brown eyed
wife to become pregnant the embryo is going to have both the parents genes with the
eye color brown “B” which is a dominant gene, and this applies also to two parents
with blue eyes “b” is recessive gene . On the opposite hand if you have two
parents who have
