Question: 1 / 400

The concept of nature versus nurture refers to what?

The place of origin for an individual

The influence of genetics and the environment on human development

The concept of nature versus nurture is a centuries-long debate about the relative roles of genetics (nature) and environment (nurture) in shaping an individual's development and characteristics. Option B is the most accurate choice as it encompasses both aspects of the nature versus nurture debate. Option A is too specific and does not fully capture the complexity of the debate. Option C and D are also incorrect as they do not encompass the full scope of the nature versus nurture concept. While skills and abilities in childhood and male and female psychology may be shaped by nature and nurture, these options do not encompass the larger debate about the overall development and characteristics of individuals.
