question 3 of 10
scientists want to know how our genes interact with our environment to make us who we are. this is the ______ question.

a. upbringing - nurturing
b. developmental
c. nature versus nurture
d. gene - environment

Explanation:

The question is about how genes (nature) and environment (nurture) interact to shape an individual. The "nature versus nurture" debate focuses on the influence of genetic inheritance (nature) and environmental factors (nurture) on development and behavior, which matches the described scientific inquiry. Option A's terms are not the standard phrase for this concept. Option B (developmental) is too broad and not specific to gene - environment interaction. Option D ("gene - environment") is a more descriptive phrase but the classic, widely - recognized term for this type of question is "nature versus nurture".

Answer:

C. nature versus nurture
