Dosage of the hematic level of ATP has been afforded in 20 (7 MZ and 13 DZ) twin pairs aged 4-6 years. The intrapair correlation coefficient has been calculated and resulted to be significantly higher in MZ than DZ twin pairs. The hereditary “quantum” in the determination of the hematic level of ATP was also estimated and resulted to be of about two thirds.
