You share half of your genetic makeup with each of your parents, but you are no doubt very different from both of them. spend a few minutes jotting down the similarities and differences between you and your parents. how do you think your unique environment and experiences have contributed to some of the differences you see?

Respuesta :

I have black hair just like my father and blue eyes like my mother. The shape of my nose also resembles the shape of my father’s nose yet I am taller than both of them, I have less body fat index and more hair!

I think the environmental factors are responsible from much of the differences between me and my parents, after all I grew up, in a sense, in a different world. The level of pollutants in the air, the hormones in the food, ,better medical care and even the availability of information regarding health care choices, they are all factors that change from generation to generation and change they way we are and a very real way. It is true that we are the product of our genes but the environment plays a determinant role in our development as well.
