Answer:

nature and nurture

Explanation:

The argument about nature vs nurture talks about the influences biology and/or culture have on people and their development.

Nature refers to the biological and genetic predisposition for forming the character, traits, and personality. This idea claims that people's personality and core character are inherited, and are not subject to much change. The idea is that what we inherit from our parents and the rest of the family, as well as from our race, nation, etc, is the core of our personality.

The nurture side argues that people are creatures of habit, education, upbringing, and other circumstantial aspects, and society and culture in which a person grows up have a huge influence. This idea supports cultural relativity and the concept that our characters, traits, and personalities are developed in accordance with what is valued, believed in and dominant in our surroundings and cultural codes we adopt during our development and growth.
