The answer is monozygotic twins.
Monozygotic twins refers to the type of twin that derived from one zygote (most people more familiar with the term identical twin)
High siblings correlation implicates that environmental factors (such as social group, wealth, and education) played a huge influence in people's development rather than genetic alone.
