[QUOTE="selfAdjoint, post: 695190, member: 134"] This new paper in Nature Genetics: [url]http://www.nature.com/ng/journal/v37/n8/abs/ng1608.html[/url] suggests that considerable variance in lifetimes of C. Elegans with controled, identical genomes, is caused by an essentially random variable; the first encounter with a certain chemical in its environment. From the abstract. MZ (identical) human twins have 60%-80% less variance in IQ betweeen pairs than random members of the population, but the remaining 20%-40% might not be due to family environment or peer group history, but to random chemical events.
