A)the influence of genetics on the environment.
B)the effects of measurement errors in the research.
C)the failure of the No Child Left Behind Act.
D)the effect of the environment on heritability.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The greater differences in intelligence among children in intellectually and socially enriched environments suggest that the environment plays a significant role in shaping intelligence and therefore has an effect on heritability. It is also important to note that while genetics do play a role, the variations in intelligence are more closely tied to environmental factors. Therefore, option A is not the correct answer. Option B is incorrect because measurement errors would not influence the overall trend of greater differences in intelligence in enriched environments. Option C is also incorrect because the No Child Left Behind Act is not related to the findings of the study.
