Big Debate vs. Big Duet:
Nature vs. Nurture

Abstract
Nature vs. Nurture? The debate has obsessed the minds of psychologists and philosophers for many years. However, for the object-orienteer, it has never been a problem: an object inherits all of its properties. In this work we ask if an object should not be subject to environmental effects. We answer this question in the affirmative by demonstrating many cases in which the character of an object must be affected by the environment it is put in. We present a new abstraction mechanism - Environmental Acquisition - which allows a component to inherit properties from its enclosing composite.
Nature versus Nurture Nurture has a larger effect on us than does nature. Nurture is the characteristic builder that we gain as we grow up. It is what defines our nature and makes us who we are. Nurture cultivates our nature, and it is the main regulator of our being. How did we get our physical appearance our physical set-up? We got our blue eyes from mother, and our jowl from father. How about our behaviors or skills? Where did we get thrill-seek personality and talent for singing? Did we learn these from our parents or was it determined by our genes? All we know is about nature vs. nurture. This is known that nature refers to heredity and the nurture refers to our environmental. Nature and nurture have big effects on us, only which one has bigger effect is the question for many searchers and scientists. Nature determines our appearance, looks, hair or skin colors and the other things. These are all about our genetic set-up. Having rare beard could passed-down. Many people believe that bad trait of the children is because of bad parenting, but the reason could be biological or genetic which comes thoroughly from parents or grand-grandparents. To nourish; feed; to support and encourage, as during the period of training or development are the dictionary definitions of nurture.
