1Nature-Genetic Factors of Intelligence states that nature is based on heredity and is based on our genes and cannot improve.
- ATrue
- BFalse
2Which genetic syndrome can impact intelligence?
- ACystic Fibrosis
- BAlbinism
- CDown syndrome
- DTurner Syndrome
3People with positive IQ heredity may do worse on IQ tests than people with a negative IQ heredity raised in the same environment.
- ATrue
- BFalse
4Recent research suggests that [blank_start]mathematically[blank_end] gifted adolescents may possess a specific functional [blank_start]organisation[blank_end] ability compared to adolescents with an [blank_start]average[blank_end] mathematical ability. This suggests that gifted adolescents might have [blank_start]stronger[blank_end] processing in the [blank_start]right[blank_end] cerebral hemisphere, and [blank_start]greater[blank_end] communication and brain activation between cerebral [blank_start]hemispheres[blank_end].
- AMathematically
- BEnglish
- CPsychologically
- DScientifically
- Eorganisation
- Fstructural
- Gaverage
- Hincorrect
- Istronger
- Jweaker
- Kright
- Lleft
- Mgreater
- Nworse
- Ohemispheres
- Plobes
5The heredity coefficient is a number between [blank_start]0-1[blank_end] (typical heredity ranges from [blank_start]0.5-0.7[blank_end]) and drives the influence of heredity on [blank_start]intelligence[blank_end]
- A0-1
- B0.5-0.7
- Cintelligence
6Families who live together often share the same [blank_start]genes[blank_end] and [blank_start]environment[blank_end]. If they have parents or grandparents with [blank_start]high[blank_end] intelligence, there is a high chance that they will have high intelligence too. However, it's not possible to determine how much is because of their genes or their environment. It is evident that [blank_start]heredity[blank_end] plays a [blank_start]large[blank_end] part in intelligence. However by observing [blank_start]twins[blank_end], siblings, and adopted children, it is evident that environment plays a large part in [blank_start]intelligence[blank_end] too. In a [blank_start]deprived[blank_end] environment however, heredity does not help much, whereas a [blank_start]positive[blank_end] IQ heredity can be accentuated in an enriched environment

7The development of a persons intellectual ability may be enhanced by:
- AHealthy living environment
- BGood Educational Opportunities
- CThe type of house they live in
- DNo head injuries or trauma
- ELots of friends
- FFamily and community who talk and actively interact with the children
- GActive social life
- HToxin-free pregnancy
- IIllness-free pregnancy
- JNo serious illness
8The development of a person's intellectual ability may be inhibited by
- ALimited opportunities
- BExtreme poverty
- CInadequate social life
- DPoor diet during childhood
- EInadequate or limited educational opportunities
- FLarge Family
- GInadequate diet or illness during pregnancy
- HSmall Family
- ISerious illness or seizure
- JHead injury or brain trauma
9If a child has been raised in a deprived environment they will never regain intelligence
- ATrue
- BFalse
10A reaction rate is when our [blank_start]genes[blank_end] set the boundaries in which we can operate. The [blank_start]phenotype[blank_end] (expressed characteristics) and the genotype ([blank_start]genetic[blank_end] characteristics) work together - but the genes set the [blank_start]limitations.[blank_end]
- Agenes
- Bphenotype
- Cgenetic
- Dlimitations.
11What is heritability?
- AHow much your genes contribute to your intelligence.
- BHow many of your parents genes you have inherited
- CHow similar your intelligence is to your parents
- DWhether genes have a bigger impact than environment on intelligence
