Trinna is two inches shorter and was a severely selective eater as a child. A researcher was conducting an investigation about twins separated at birth. What research method and explanation best fit this scenario?a. A longitudinal study, bc heredity is more important than enviroment
b. A case study, bc enviroment is more important than heredity
c. a case study, bc both heredity and enviroment are important
d. a longitudinal study, because enviroment is much less important in early childhood
e. A correlational study, bc parents' height levels have little correlation with children

Answer 1

Answer:

Your question is poorly written, but as far as what was read the best thing would be a longitudinal study since you could see the evolution over time of the twins.

Explanation:

Longitudinal studies, unlike cross-sectional studies, are studies that analyze a factor in a population over time, thus analyzing the possible variables that occurred in those years, months or days. In simple words, the evolution over time is what a longitudinal study is based on (On the other hand, not a transversal one, since it would investigate a specific problem at a specific moment in time)
