Wrongo. When reproduction occurs, you don't clone your DNA into a baby. Your traits are either homozygous/heterozygous according to who you mated with, and genes are altered. This creates different personalities based upon those that created it, that's how you can have one child that is a lawyer and the other is a meth addict. We as humans were altered at one point in our genealogy, which resulted in our breed. Through many, MANY years of evolution we became to walk upright, as an ADAPTATION to our environment. That's also why animals adapt to receive defense mechanisms as well.


everything you say is right, except the part with the children.
Imagin 2 monozygotic twins. They have a 100% identical DNA, but can grow into totaly different directions, based on the environmante they grow up in. (this question is called nature-nuture problem)

This is a pretty bad misrepresentation of genetics. It's pretty clear that our DNA doesn't encode for our personalities.

Traits are either dominant or recessive, not homozygous/heterozygous.

i wouldn't say that.
For example: imagine a good looking baby and a bad looking one.
The good looking baby gets more attention by its environment than the bad looking one. Thats a sad thing, but its human at all :(
This attention could change the babys behaviour in interaction with foreigners.
Well in this case, the dna itself doesn't affekt the behaviour in a direct way, but it has an affekt.

All in all i dont think it makes sence to ask what is determined by your dna and what is determined by your environment. You have to watch this 2 factors in interaktion.

We evolved from apes end of story. Apes would not have human babies because during evolution genes and genetic material changed.

common myth...we didn't evolve from apes -- apes and humans both evolved from a common ancestor.
