Nature and Nurture01:10

Nature and Nurture

Many human characteristics, like height, are shaped by both nature—in other words, by our genes—and by nurture, or our environment. For example, chronic stress during childhood inhibits the production of growth hormones and consequently reduces bone growth and height. Scientists estimate that 70-90% of variation in height is due to genetic differences among individuals, and 10-30% of variation in height is due to differences in the environments that individuals experience, such as differences...
Plasticity00:58

Plasticity

Plasticity is the property where an object loses its elasticity and undergoes irreversible deformation, even after the deformation forces are eliminated. If a material deforms irreversibly without increasing stress or load, then this is called ideal plasticity. For example, when a force is applied to an aluminum rod, it changes its shape, but it does not return to its original shape once the force is removed. Plastic deformation or ductility is thus a permanent deformation or change in the...
Neuroplasticity01:01

Neuroplasticity

Neuroplasticity reflects the brain's remarkable capacity to adapt and evolve, responding dynamically to learning, experiences, or injury by reorganizing its neural circuitry. This reorganization involves creating new neural connections and refining old ones through a series of biological processes that contribute to the brain's lifelong development and adaptability.
Human Genetics01:28

Human Genetics

Human genetics provides a profound framework for understanding the interplay between genetic predispositions and human psychology. At the heart of this discipline lies the study of how genes influence physical traits, behaviors, and susceptibility to diseases. Each person carries a unique genetic code that subtly or significantly shapes their psychological and behavioral landscape.
The complex relationship between genetics and psychology is observable through common biological components such...
Introduction to Developmental Psychology01:27

Introduction to Developmental Psychology

Developmental psychology explores the changes and continuities in human abilities throughout life, encompassing physical, cognitive, linguistic, and social dimensions. Human development is not restricted to growth, but includes aspects of decline, particularly in physical abilities as individuals age. Developmental psychologists seek to understand how people change as they age and how their mental and social skills evolve.Developmental MilestonesA key concept in developmental psychology is...
Three Developmental Domains01:29

Three Developmental Domains

Human development is typically examined across three main domains: physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional. These domains represent the significant areas of change and continuity throughout the lifespan, from infancy to late adulthood.
Physical Development
Physical processes, also known as maturation, encompass the biological changes that occur across an individual's life. These changes begin with genetic inheritance and continue through various stages, including growth in height and weight,...

Resumen

Los organismos se adaptan a su entorno a través de la plasticidad del desarrollo, influenciada por la vida temprana y las exposiciones de los padres. Los rápidos cambios ambientales pueden plantear riesgos para la salud, lo que afecta a las estrategias de salud pública.

Área de la Ciencia:

  • Biología del desarrollo Biología del desarrollo.
  • Biología evolutiva Biología evolutiva.
  • Salud humana La salud humana es la salud humana.

Sus antecedentes:

  • Los organismos exhiben plasticidad fenotípica, adaptando rasgos como el tamaño y el metabolismo a las condiciones ambientales.
  • Las exposiciones tempranas o parentales pueden inducir adaptaciones del desarrollo, preparando a la descendencia para los entornos previstos.
  • Las adaptaciones del desarrollo a un entorno pueden crear vulnerabilidad cuando los individuos se encuentran con nuevas condiciones más adelante en la vida.

Objetivo del estudio:

  • Explorar las bases biológicas de la plasticidad del desarrollo en respuesta a las señales ambientales.
  • Comprender cómo la nutrición temprana y los factores ambientales influyen en el desarrollo humano y la susceptibilidad a las enfermedades.
  • Examinar las consecuencias paradójicas para la salud de las rápidas mejoras ambientales después de períodos de escasez.

Principales métodos:

  • Revisión de la evidencia biológica sobre la plasticidad fenotípica en plantas y animales.
  • Análisis de los cambios en el desarrollo humano en respuesta a una mejor nutrición materna.
  • Consideración de los efectos intergeneracionales de las exposiciones ambientales.

Principales resultados:

  • La plasticidad del desarrollo permite a los organismos adaptar rasgos a las condiciones ambientales, optimizando la supervivencia o la reproducción.
  • Las características de la descendencia, incluyendo el tamaño corporal y el metabolismo, están influenciadas por el estado nutricional de la madre.
  • Las rápidas mejoras en las condiciones de vida pueden, paradójicamente, dañar a las personas cuyos antepasados experimentaron privaciones.
