From the father or the mother? Science explains from whom a child inherits intelligence

Science confirms it: children's intelligence depends largely on their mother's genes. A study by the University of Cambridge has found that genes related to mental abilities are passed down through the X chromosome, which women have twice as many as men. This means that children are more likely to inherit their intellectual abilities from their mother than from their father.

Researchers analyzed the genetic and biochemical components of the brain, proving that the mother's genes significantly influence the development of cerebral structures related to thinking and problem solving. In addition to genetic factors, the relationship between mother and child also plays a key role. Children who grow up with support and love from their mother develop more curiosity and mental skills, writes A2 CNN.

This study has sparked debate in the scientific community, while other research has supported this theory. However, experts emphasize that intelligence depends not only on genes, but also on environment, upbringing and life experience. So, while genetic inheritance from the mother is an important factor, brain development is a complex process that is influenced by many elements. (A2 Televizion)
