The twin study can help us understand the nature vs. nurture of intelligence because the twins come from the same genome, resulting in genetic similarities. If we separate the two, putting them in different environments, they should still have similar intelligence levels, if intellect was based on hereditary conditions. If intelligence was based on environmental conditions the twins would grow to have different intellect levels. With that being said, the twin study allows researchers to understand how intellect may come about within different people.
