Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is known as the twin studies in political science, and the findings consistently show that identical twins are more likely to have similar political views than fraternal twins. This suggests that genetics plays a role in shaping our political beliefs, but of course, environmental factors also play a part. Option A is incorrect because fraternal twins, on average, do not hold the same political opinions as each other. Option B is also incorrect as it's not about fraternal twins holding similar political views to each other, but more about whether their political views are as similar to that of identical twins. Option D is not mentioned in the question, so it's not the correct answer.
