Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The genetic code contained within the fertilized human egg determines the species and characteristics of the organism that will develop. The genetic code specifies the instructions for the development of human traits and prevents the development of traits specific to other species such as crocodiles, ducks, or fish. Social influence, environmental influence, and adaptive behavior have no direct impact on the genetic makeup of the organism.
