THE IMPORTANCE OF STUDYING TWINS

– By observing twins, variables such as the home and genes can easily be controlled. Identical twins can easily be compared to fraternal twins when studying occurrences such as genetic diseases and behaviors. Twins who are identical are far more likely to develop genetic diseases than those that are fraternal. Separated identical twins are also found to exhibit huge similarities when it comes to behaviors. The study which involves twins can help display the influence both genes and society has on children.
