Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Identical twins share the same genes, making them the most genetically similar individuals possible. As bipolar disorder has a genetic component, Melody, who shares the same genes as Melanie, would be at the greatest risk for developing the disorder. Marty, Marvin, and Marissa would also have an increased risk due to their genetic relatedness to Melanie, but not as high as Melody's risk.
