There is, however, a biological attribute to culture as well, which has actually been shaped through evolution.
- It is interesting to see how mindsets, technology, awareness, and socializing affects evolution
- Human cultural traits, behaviors, ideas, and technologies can be learned from other individuals
- These can exhibit complex patterns of transmission and evolution
- For years researchers have developed theoretical models, both verbal and mathematical, to study these patterns.
- This has allowed scientists to gain a greater understanding of human interaction and how our mindsets could lead to the future of human evolution.
- Culture impacts the behavior of human beings which is then transmitted to their off springs or people they interact with.
- How different cultures deal with medical, traditional, and partnership marriages.
- This can therefore impact genetics, medical care, and different elements used in different tradition.
- An example of each can be:
1) Genetics - the genes of one parent combined with the genes of another.
2) Medical care - In India and Bangladesh people often use a wide variety of natural medication, e.g Ayurvedic.
3) Tradition- In India most people don't eat beef because it is against our religion. Whereas in the US a lot of people eat beef.
- "These cognitive adaptations give rise to a robust second system of inheritance (cultural evolution) that operates by different transmission rules than genetic inheritance, and can thus produce a phenomena that is not observed in other less cultural species."
- Therefore you see a clash in the way human evolution goes hand in hand with cultural changes.
