Detailed explanation-1: -Genes, via their influences on morphology and physiology, create a framework within which the environment acts to shape the behavior of an individual animal. The environment can affect morphological and physiological development; in turn behavior develops as a result of that animal’s shape and internal workings.
Detailed explanation-2: -Gene–environment interactions are the situation where the impact of an environmental exposure on disease risk is different for people with different genotypes, or conversely, situations where the impact of a genotype on disease risk is different in people with different environmental exposures.
Detailed explanation-3: -Science tells us that the interactions between genes and environment shape human development. Despite the misconception that genes are “set in stone, ” research shows that early experiences can determine how genes are turned on and off-and even whether some are expressed at all.
Detailed explanation-4: -Environment affects animal behavior by changing the availability of survival resources like food & shelter, as well as situational things like proximity to human activity. Sometimes the same species of animal will behave completely differently in a forest environment compared to an urban environment.
