4.Tanr1kulu and Erba_ (2020) investigated identical twins to determine the
presence of an inherited link for schizophrenia and why one twin may
develop schizophrenia when the other does not. When two people have
100% identical DNA, why don't both persons develop the exact illnesses?
Studies of identical Danish twins found that if one twin had schizophrenia,
the other twin had a 50% lifetime risk of developing schizophrenia (Lemvigh
et al., 2020). Why is there only half the risk?: Both environmental and
psychosocial stressors can im- pact mental health. Although twins may
have identical genes, their gene expression may be different.
There may be an environmental exposure that turned a gene "on" that
should have been "off" for one twin to develop schizophrenia and not the
