Heredity and Environment: Agents of Socialization

What makes you, you. This may be the genes you were born, or the environment you developed. This long discussion on genetics and the environment is still prevalent and researchers have discovered that genetics and the environment equally contribute to socialization. The socialization process can be better understood when studying the genetic and environmental functions themselves. Socialization begins in the uterus and ends in the grave. Through interpersonal exchanges, individuals learn attitudes, values ​​and actions suitable for a specific culture.

There are two types of inheritance: biological and social. Biological inheritance includes all physiological and psychological features that people inherit from parents through genes in the chromosome. Social inheritance refers to everything a generation derives from future generations in the form of social customs, traditions, ideals, values, beliefs, ethics, customs, and skills. When each generation hands these acquired skills and knowledge to future generations, it constitutes a social heritage.

There are two types of inheritance: biology and society. Biological inheritance is the inheritance of the child's genes from parents and ancestors in the form of chromosomes. Social inheritance involves the inheritance of previous generations inherited by generations in the form of social traditions, customs and skills. Both genetics and the environment play an important role in personality formation. Personality is formed by the interaction between genetics and the environment. Genetic influence affects individual physique, kinesthetic equipment, and intelligence level. It also affects temperament characteristics and disease trends

Genetic and environmental influence on ontogeny plays a very important role. Personal personality is the product of genetics and the environment. In some cases, inheritance overwhelms development and in other cases the environment may have a significant impact on growth and development. Because of this difference individuals differ in physique, personality and other personality traits. Harmonious and harmonious interactions between genetics and the environment are very necessary for balanced and harmonious individual development.
