No, breathing definitely is not. The child must be "slapped" to producecrying
which results in rapid inhalations that last for life. There is a
disorder where people forget to breathe (forgot the name) and humans
can train themselves to slow their breathing to a cataleptic state. Something
similar happens to persons drowning in cold water. They can be revived
after half an hour with no brain damage. So this is a phenomenon that
entails gas (CO2) balance in the blood and how the brain sensor
perceives it, temperature, homeostasis, and on and on. Stuff that
we know nothing about perhaps. To claim it is based on the genes is
like saying the sun is bright. True, but useless as an explanation.
Try again.
