Wilson (Sutton’s supervisor) for proposing the chromosome theory of inheritance. 1905 The word "genetics" is coined by William Bateson

Environment and genetics both play a role in transforming someone to become insane with violence. Research has shown that childhood maltreatment mixed with the MAOA gene can increase the risk of criminal behavior in medium to large amounts. On the other hand‚ Environment alone is a small risk to violent behavior where the MAOA shows a greater risk alone (3). While this may be true‚ society still believes maltreatment is the cause of criminal behavior. William March‚ the author of the Bad Seed‚ shows a scenario
