question 4 of 10
some aspects of a person may be predetermined at birth by his or her genes. however, a persons environment can change how the genes are expressed and can change who a person becomes. this is an example of the ______ debate.

a. stability versus change
b. continuity versus stages

Explanation:

The question discusses how genes (nature) and environment (nurture) both influence a person's development. The "nature versus nurture" debate focuses on the relative roles of genetic inheritance (nature) and environmental factors (nurture) in shaping human traits and development. Option A is about whether traits stay stable or change over time. Option B is about whether development is continuous or stage - like. Option C has an incorrect pairing as the typical debate is nature vs nurture, not change vs nurture. So the correct answer is D.

Answer:

D. nature versus nurture
