First, someone on another board posted this information and someone tell me if it is urban legend or if there is evidence to back it up. Children get there IQ through the X chromesome and because of this the son gets his intelligence from his mother (so shellymos if that is true you just might be in denial) and the daughter gets her intelligence from both parents.
A friend of mine also have heard of this, but she could not give me any reference to it. Only that she heard it 'somewhere'.
On the other hand, my sister (biologist) told me that pretty much all the genetic information comes in the X chromosome. Most of the information contained in the Y one is redundant... I can ask her again for more specific information
