Genes are found in all cells of the body. They’re like chemical codes that determine a person’s physical traits. Genes determine

a person’s height, skin color, eye color, blood type, and many other things.
To see if people with the same genes had about the same intelligence levels, a group of scientists conducted a study of 20 pairs of twins. Ten pairs were identical twins, both developing from the same egg in their mother. The other ten pairs were fraternal twins. They were born at the same time but from different eggs in the mother. Identical twins have almost identical sets of genes, but fraternal twins don’t. After studying the 20 pairs of twins for 10 years, all of the individuals were given an intelligence test. Scientists found that the intelligence scores of the identical twins were very close. Overall, the test scores of the identical twins were much closer together than those of the pairs of fraternal twins.

4    Love is not to be spoken. It’s to be held inside. To express love, we should whisper hopeful words to each other, especially at a time when things may look bleak and hopeless.

1. Identical twins are more likely to have roughly equal intelligence levels than fraternal twins.

2. "<span>Overall, the test scores of the identical twins were much closer together than those of the pairs of fraternal twins."


</span><span>"Ten pairs were identical twins, both developing from the same egg in their mother. The other ten pairs were fraternal twins."


The paragraphs compare the two, but show that it builds to that conclusion by showing those details. These seem like opening paragraphs too, so the final sentence would be the thesis statement. The thesis statement normally tells the reader the author's claim, so those two quotes I pointed out are its supporting details.</span>
