Already inclined or likely to do something, or having a genetic tendency toward a certain condition or trait.
From the prefix 'pre-' (before) and 'dispose' (from Latin 'disponere,' to arrange). It literally means arranged beforehand, either by nature or circumstance.
You might be genetically predisposed to height, musical talent, or even certain diseases—but that doesn't determine your fate. Modern science shows that 'nature plus nurture' work together, so being predisposed to something doesn't mean it will definitely happen.
