Answer to Question 1

Answer: Burts research involved observations that men who had a G-allele that made them more likely to break rules and take risks would induce liking on the part of others. It seems that rule breaking does lead to popularity. There are other possible interactions in this line of research that may involve similar gene-environment interactions. Social dominance, for example, is widely studied and it is likely that one or more genes may be correlated with behaviors that lead to social dominance. Once this gene or these genes are identified then one could look for reactions from those socially dominated. It could even be that a gene for being social dominated could be identified and then a gene-gene-environment interaction could be studied. There are many possible combinations that a student could discuss. The answer needs only to demonstrate a basic knowledge of possible gene-environment interactions.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: equal environments
