"Identical twins are more similar on the trait than fraternal twins" would lead to the conclusion that genetic factors are important in the development of this trait.

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Research performed on identical or fraternal twins are twin investigations. We seek to expose the significance for characteristics, phenotypes and diseases of environmental and genetic factors. Twin work is considered a key instrument in the domains of behavioral genetics and material, from biology to psychology.

Fraternal or dizygous twins each share around 50 % of their DNA, just like any other parent. Since the twins are born into the same family they share other factors of their surroundings. The existence of a given genetic or phenotypic trait in just one component of a pair of twins called discordance offers a valuable insight into influence on such a trait on climate.

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: C. Microevolution is small scale change to the gene pool of a population while macroevolution is larger scale changes that lead to speciation.

Explanation:

Microevolution can be defined as a small change in the gene frequency within a gene pool of the species, these changes will be inherited by the organisms and there will not be any drastic change at the species level. But in case of macroevolution the large scale change occurs at the genetic level, which retain for long. This leads to development of new organisms or results in speciation.
