Your Sense Of Taste

Inherited From: Mother
Note: Taste perception is not just environmentally dependent

Have you ever pondered why people have distinct tastes and dislikes for food? That is why they have such diverse perceptions of flavor! Brussel sprouts may taste great and crunchy to some, while they may taste completely disgusting to others. This is because taste perception is a hereditary trait inherited from your mother’s gene pool. So, if you’re a father whose child claims to be on the edge of puking after eating broccoli, and your wife states the same thing, believe your child and your wife. They can’t be making this up only to avoid eating broccoli; it’s in their DNA to dislike it!

Inherited From: Grandmother
Note: You can blame genetics for your procrastination

Everyone endures spells of laziness and procrastination throughout their lives, whether it is due to a change in weather at the start of winter, hormonal shifts, or even catastrophic life experiences. Leaving such variables aside, your general motivation level in life is determined by another factor: DNA. Motivation, contrary to popular belief, is a hereditary attribute passed down from your grandmother. However, because your grandmother’s genes determined your parents’ genetic composition, the latter are also partially responsible for your motivation and strong-willed personality throughout your life. However, it is vital to realize that these levels are subject to fluctuate throughout your life, influenced by a variety of other variables far more powerful than genetics.
