The development of almost any behavioral trait is the result of an interaction between the genotype of an organism and its environment (broadly defined). Research a behavior and explain, in detail, the specific process through which both gene expression and environmental factors influence the eventual behavior produced. Note: This is not the time for a hypothetical example and the behavior you select must have both genetic and behavioral components to its production.
