learned behavior, baby, learned behavior...

"Culture is the integrated system of learned behavior patterns which are characteristic of the members of a society and which are not the result of biological inheritance...

...culture is not genetically predetermined; it is noninstinctive...

...it is wholly the result of social invention and is transmitted and maintained through communication and learning."

- wise words from noted anthropologist E. Adamson Hoebel.
