ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

I've no idea if it is the same thing, but we used to teach in the classroom
that the ability or inability to roll the tongue into a 'tube' is a
particularly clear example of genetics. It is a textbook classic. However, I
read recently that identical twins often differ in this. It amused me to
imagine how many biology lessons were inconveniently disrupted by identical
twins before the possiblility became 'official'.

Awaken curiosity and they feed their own minds for a lifetime.
