Think about the podcast that you listened to in the Lesson 2.01 Introduction. Write a one-paragraph (using complete sentences) description of the experiment that was performed on these two women. Be sure to include the following: Why was the experiment conducted? What was done to the two women in order to conduct the experiment? What conclusions could be made from this experiment? Why do you think that experiments like this are no longer performed?

Explanation:

The experiment was conducted with the purpose of understanding what makes us "who we really are"; our environment or genetics?

The two women, Paula Bernstein and Elyse Schein identical twins were separated from each other at birth and only got to be reunited when they turned age 35.

"It's undeniable that genetics play a huge role," says Paula. This makes us concludes that genetics still play a role in determining who really are.

Such experiments are no longer performed today because there are legal restrictions put in place against such actions, including the ethical issues it created.
