Is Violence In Your Genes? Scientists have discovered a gene in our body nicknamed the warrior gene. Is it harmful? This gene is responsible for some of our actions and feelings So, if the warrior gene doesn't cause aggressiveness, what does? What is the Warrior Gene? The warrior gene is one version of a very important gene called MAO-A Everyone carries MAO-A but only a third of mans is less active It can tell the brain to control chemicals and nerotransmitters that let brain cells communicate to each other Does the Gene Affect Our Actions or Feelings? The gene is responsible to regulate nerotransmitters This gene is responsible for our traits and behavior or certain actions The gene affects your feelings and thoughts What Causes Our Aggressiveness? People who have the warrior gene aren't more aggressive because of the gene A bad childhood or abusive childhood can affect their brain to make them aggressive One man had the warrior gene but was not aggressive because he had a loving childhood You have learned about..... The MAO-A gene The warrior gene If the warrior gene does or doesn't cause aggressiveness What causes aggressiveness What the gene can affect
