Question

question 51 (1.5 points) which is the best conclusion about the impact of nature and nurture on development? genetics totally determines how peoples lives turn out. parents totally determine how childrens lives turn out. an adult should push children into unfamiliar environments to expand the childs potential. adults need to pick environments that bring out childrens inborn genetic talents.

Explanation:

• The nature - nurture debate emphasizes that both genetic (nature) and environmental (nurture) factors influence development.
• Option 1 is wrong because it claims genetics totally determines outcomes, ignoring nurture.
• Option 2 is wrong as it says parents (a part of nurture) totally determine outcomes, ignoring nature.
• Option 3 is not a conclusion about the impact of nature and nurture; it focuses on pushing children into unfamiliar environments without considering their inborn traits.
• Option 4 recognizes that adults should choose environments (nurture) that enhance children's inborn genetic talents (nature), which is in line with the idea that both nature and nurture interact in development.

Answer:

D. Adults need to pick environments that bring out children's inborn genetic talents.
