Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: 10 of first degree relatives (children, siblings, parents) are diagnosed with schizophrenia at some point in their lives. One single gene is not responsible for producing schizophrenia. There is strong evidence that environmental factors do affect the risk of developing schizophrenia. The chance of monozygotic (identical) twins both having schizophrenia is 25 to 39, not 100.

Answer to Question 2
