The Nature vs Nurture Debate: What Shapes Intelligence?
The debate on the role of genetics and environment on intelligence continues with some experts asserting that it is probabilistic due to factors like in uterine environment and chance, while others believe that it is stable and can be studied through interactions between genes and environment.

Despite claims that the genetic influence on the development of the brain is not as deterministic as assumed, the G factor of intelligence can be studied for information of interactions between genes and environments that affect its stability.

Summary
Despite claims that the genetic influence on the development of the brain is not as deterministic as assumed, the G factor of intelligence can be studied for information of interactions between genes and environments that affect its stability. Various data sources over decades indicate the correlation of IQ scores with brain function and the similarity of IQ scores between identical twins reared apart.
