Knowing what we know about the link between genetics, environment and intelligence, what would be your expectations if you were

a teacher and you had a pair of monozygotic twins in your classroom

Vesnalui [34]4 years ago

Answer:

I would expect them to perform similar.

Explanation:

Studies suggest that intelligence has a genetic component and can, in part, be passed from parent to child - but not only that. There are outer components that contribute to the formation of intelligent individuals. Better nutrition and more access to education would be possible explanations for the progressive increase in intelligence test scores over time.

Homozygous twins are those that are mainly characterized by similarity between individuals. These twins are formed from the same zygote, ie after the fertilization process. Because of this characteristic, they have the same genetic heritage and are therefore considered identical.

As the homozygous twins in their classroom have the same genetic heritage and attend the same environment, we can conclude that their intelligence is influenced by the same factors. For this reason, a teacher who taught these two brothers might have expectations that they would perform similarly in the classroom.

Explain what happens to species with lower resilience as compared to species with higher levels
Reika [66]

Answer

Species with lower resilience have less chance to survive.

Explanation

The resilience rate means to recover after destruction. The species having a higher rate of resilience recover fast when undergoing any damage hence have higher chance to survive. The species with lower resilience rate can collapse as a result of any damage to species by any internal factor such as disease or external factors such as food or climate change.
