Research indicates that the characteristics we are born have much more influence on our personality and development than any experience we may have in our life. Which do you consider to be the major influence?

A study revealed that humans are influenced by their genetic make-up rather than life experiences.In my opinion,though genes do control basic

behaviour

patterns like excessive anger or impulsive decision-makers in some,still it is life experiences that play a crucial in shaping a personality as and when they face difficulties.

To begin

with,genes play a major role in building up a basic personality in every human.DNA make up of every

person

is transferred from parents to children,which signifies that they are biologically related.Physical features including emotional factors are

also

sometimes inherited from parents.

For example

,research showed that emotions like violent

noticed in members of the same family.These reasons show that the basic character of a

person

is decided at birth.

in his personality.Many people after certain age start behaving differently from their family members leading to a generation gap.

This

is why external factors play a major role in shaping an individual. To conclude,basic

behaviour

pattern is noticed in all due to genetic make-up.

Although

it is the major factor for a

person

's different nature;

however

,in my opinion,life-changing experiences later in life alter the

behaviour

pattern.
