Explanation:

Most psychologists say that it is both the environment and heredity that govern most thoughts and behaviors of an individual because human behaviors and thoughts develop through a series of external and internal influences.

Heredity comprise of the inborn characteristics of an individual which develops a person through genetic information such as race, ethnicity, family characteristics, etc. These internal influences attributes to our preconditioned behaviors and thoughts as individuals.

On the other hand, environment also plays an important on how individuals develop their behaviors and thoughts. External influences such as food habit, society, ideologies, information, etc., play an important role in shaping one's thoughts and behaviors.

For example, an individual who is raised in an environment where there is plenty of healthy food and exercise may grow healthier and taller than what his/her heredity actually has preconditioned.

While, a person no matter how much good food he eats or follows a healthy lifestyle, his health would remain the same according to his/her gene information.
