Environmental Factors In Twin Studies
In a twin study, a researcher studied sets of identical twins and fraternal twins. The first set remained with their twin sibling and were raised in the same household. They belonged to Set A. For the other part of the study, they studied identical twins and fraternal twins who had been split up from their twin and each raised in a different household. This is Set B. What will happen to the characteristics that are determined largely by environmental factors?
A
More pronounced for Set B fraternal twins compared to identical twins.
B
More pronounced for Set A fraternal twins compared to identical twins.
C
Equally pronounced for Set B twins.
D
More pronounced for Set A identical twins compared to fraternal twins.
E
Equally pronounced for Set A twins.
