Solution

Epigenesis

Epigenesis refers to the idea that development results from the interaction between hereditary factors and environmental influences. Basic biological structures and previously acquired behaviours interact continuously to produce more complex abilities. Thus, development cannot be explained entirely by either heredity or environment alone.
