The central idea of the text is that both nature and nurture contribute to who a person becomes. The correct answer is C. While the traits your parents pass down help make you who you are, outside influences also play an important role. This is supported by the text, which discusses how traits inherited from parents determine certain characteristics like eye color and hair color (nature), but also emphasizes how environmental influences can shape our appearance and behavior (nurture). The text gives examples of twins with identical traits who grow up to look different based on their different environments. Additionally, the text mentions that scientists have debated this question for centuries, suggesting that there is no definite answer and both factors are considered important.
"The Man Who Coined 'Genocide' Spent His Life Trying To Stop It" is an article that talks about the life of Raphael Lemkin. Raphael Lemkin was the one who coined the term 'genocide' in 1943. The term genocide is a combination of a Greek and a Latin word. 'Genos' in Greek means 'race or family' and 'cidere' in Latin means killing. Lemkin had extensive knowledge of seven languages so he had to come up with a word that would perfectly justify the crime of mass killing of a race. Lemkin coined the term and fought till his last breath to give 'genocide' a recognition of crime and a punishable offense. Though the word 'genocide' is widely accepted today as a crime much effort has been put behind to make this word be recognized as a crime by Lemkin. While he was struggling to make this word a crime 49 members of his own family became the victim of it in the Holocaust, which made his determination even stronger.
