But other mice didnt move. They stayed up against one wall which indicated that they were afraid. Well, whe

And even when a new born mouse from this generation wa

Well its thought that specific genes in an animals body have an influence on anxious behavior. These are genes that are associated with particular nerve-cell receptors i

And this appears to apply to humans as well by the way. But while a tendency towards anxiety and fear may well be an inherited trait, the specific form that the fear takes has more to do with the individuals environment.
