The correct answer is interactions between nature and nurture.

Modern psychologists understand and believe that development is not restricted to one factor but that it is influenced by a combination of many. Nature refers to biological, genetic factors that are innate, that we are born with, whereas nurture refers to external, social factors such as our environment. As we develop our bodies are influenced by what is going on biological and socially enabling us to learn and grow.
