Detailed explanation-1: -Thus it seems that individual variation in language ability largely stems from genetic factors, but that different genetic factors may affect different aspects of language, depending on the measures used or the age assessed (see also Stromswold, 2001).
Detailed explanation-2: -Language functions are influenced by environment and genetic makeup. Advances in genetic analyses have uncovered several genes associated with language development and abilities. Several cortical regions are involved in processing language function.
Detailed explanation-3: -Genetic and environmental variation For example, the weight of a dog is caused partly by its genes-inherited-and partly by what it eats-environmental. The height of a sunflower is caused partly by its genes and partly by how much light and water it gets.
Detailed explanation-4: -Genetic and environmental variation-differences between individuals that are caused by both genetic and environmental factors, such as height and weight.
