    Scientists find it useful to divide biological traits into innate and acquired ones. But it is now a commonplace that biological traits result from the complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors. Therefore, they cannot be labeled innate or acquired simpliciter; a more sophisticated analysis is required. We will argue that biological traits are innate to the degree that they are caused by factors intrinsic to the organism at the time of its origin, while they are acquired to the degree that they are caused by factors extrinsic to the organism. We will ground this account in a rigorous notion of degree of causation. We will then compare it with previous accounts. After that, we will address skepticism about innateness and argue that the concept remains valuable.
