Innate - Effects or characteristics of the body that are innate in origin or have an
innate component that may directly and measurably determine health and/or
disability
GENETICS - Effects or characteristics of the body that are genetic in origin or have
a heritable component that may directly and measurably determine health and/or
disability.
