The study of the relative power and limits of genetic and environmental influences on behavior is known as behavior genetics. A pruning process is a term used to describe the brain's process of eliminating unused connections between neurons. Evolutionary psychology focuses on how natural selection has shaped the development of the human mind and behavior. Heritability is a statistic that describes how much of the variation in a trait can be attributed to genetic factors.
