Paper Summary:

The nature versus nurture debate has been a classic controversy among experts for centuries. Presently, there is no clear conclusion to the dispute; yet, there are many hypotheses. Both sides of this controversy have been explored thoroughly among researchers. This paper attempts to prove that the mental aptitude of a person is determined by his genetics, along with his environment, which affects it more.

From the Paper:

"The amount of nourishment an individual receives has been proven to play a very large part in a person's mental ability. This is especially true regarding infants and young children. The human brain critically needs nutritious food and antitoxins to function properly, particularly in earlier years of development. Starving people across the globe show why lack of nutrients in human bodies can stunt mental evolution as well as physical growth. "What a premature infant eats in the first month of life can have lasting intellectual impact...a new study finds" (Raloff)."
