THE GENIUS IN ALL OF US by David Shenk

Question: What would she look like? What will she be like? pg 15

   In the book they talk about how people think they get their  intelligence from their family or relatives, but that's not how your genes work. The author Shenk talks about how your genes are just something that are just made up and you get your intelligence from how you are raised and what environment you are put in. 

   The environment is something that is said in the book many time and for me this is something that is important and answers the two questions. The questions ask "how the girl will look like" well pretty much she is going to look like her father or mother, and in the book it talks about how the environment is an important aspect of the book and determining if the baby look like the mother or Father you would have to see how they nurture the baby and a how they are working things out with diets and nutrients. so the baby will turn out how it was basically raised and look like the mother or father. 
   nurture is something that is said a lot in the book and that this would answer the second question. well nurture is something that would have to do to the environment you are living in and how you are feeding and raising the kid. So those things I just said are something that would show how the girl would turn out because it would really be depending on how the baby is raised and what environment they would be living. You are some one who needs to nurture what you have, and develop the person to be a  better person and give what you didn't have when growing up
