In this experiment, identical twins who share almost the same DNA were brought up in two different houses. The similarity in their DNA was their nature and the different houses/environment was their nurture. They had the same nature but different nurture. In the end, it was proven that the twins were equally intelligent and their personalities were similar, despite the fact, that they had different nurture. Thus, proving that intelligent solely relies on your DNA make up. But there was an error in this experiment. This is because, even though the twins were brought up in different homes, these homes were very similar. The adoption organizations purposely found homes with similar environments meaning, families with similar economical statuses and other resources. This means that their nurture was similar as well. Therefore, the nature of someone is not the only key to ones intelligence.
