    Genes have been shown to influence everything
    : “All traits are heritable” is a bit of an
    exaggeration, but not by much. Concrete behavioral traits that patently depend on content
    provided by the home or culture are, of course, not heritable at all; which language you speak,
    which religion you worship in, which political party you belong to. But behavioral traits that


    reflect the underlying talents and temperaments are heritable: how proficient with language
    you are, how religious, how liberal or conservative. General intelligence is heritable, and so
    are the five major ways in which personality can vary . . . openness to experience,
    conscientiousness, extroversion-introversion, antagonism-agreeableness, and neuroticism.
    And traits that are surprisingly specific turn out to be heritable, too, such as dependence on
    nicotine or alcohol, number of hours of television watched, and likelihood of divorcing.
