What does research in genetics tell us about the heritability of human long-term memory capability?
Genetics has no impact on long-term memory capabilities.
Genetic factors completely determine an individual's long-term memory capacity without any environmental influence.
The involvement of multiple genes makes it complex to determine precisely but indicates some degree of heritability.
A single gene determines the strength and capacity for long-term memories.
