Twin

The study of twins has helped make the determination that it is in fact both. “A study of more than 14.5 million twins over the course of 50 years found that human traits are 49 percent genetic and 51 percent environmental” (Sassman, 2015, para. 10). Early on in the study of twins’ the results led to the conclusion that it was mostly genetics that caused one to be who they are; but as the studies…

than the adopted parent to have suffered with depression. The weakness of this explanation is that the genes alone do not determine which person will develop depression because there are other factors which could cause the depression. In contrast the twin studies do provide a strong evidence for the role of the genetic factors. Biological explanations are reductionist as they only focus on factors such as hormones and psychological factors are ignored, furthermore its deterministic because it…

“[M]any birth order experts agree that twins tend to organize themselves according to their overall place within the family” (Fierro 2). For example, if the first kid, or in this case the first kids in the family are twins, then they may have the personality and characteristics of first borns.

Another example of this is the study that has found evidence that shows the connection between the biology and criminality of twins and adopted children.

Creation Comparison Here we have a comparison between three stories about how the earth was made and how it all began. Even though there are extremely different they obliviously have some common ground. That of which I will be pointing out for you. The first is the Judeo Christian story in this one god creates the world and all its inhabitants along with the first two human beings who god gives the world to (I give you every seed bearing plant on the face of the earth).

When it comes to how a person turns out in life, whether they be murderers of some kind, or all time stars, most turn to how said person was raised to determine whether they were raised to become like this, or if they were just born with the mindset or capabilities. This is the nature versus nurture psychological debate, where phycologists try to determine whether some actions and behaviors were genetically transferred, or whether they were acquired through the environment someone was raised in…

How cool are clones they're like twins almost. Just like some twins you see in movies, they have a good and a bad twin. Even though I do not know any clones, I do know twins.
