Answer:

Nature versus nurture

Step-by-step explanation:

The "Nature and Nurture" debate has been going on for years in scientific society. This debate refers to characteristics of the human being that may have been inherited genetically, or, may have been developed with the influence of the environment in which the human being lives. An example of this can be seen in the question above, where one scientist believes that hostile behavior is inherited genetically, while another scientist believes that this behavior is developed through the environment and the experiences that the individual goes through.

There are also some scientists who believe that all characteristics are the result of an interaction between nature and nurture.
