Is Asperger's Syndrome more common in twins?
I have not seen any studies on whether twins are more likely to have an autism spectrum disorder than single-birth children. It is possible that no one has done research on this. If one identical twin has an autism spectrum disorder, there is approximately a 90% chance that the other identical twin will. They might not have the same autism spectrum disorder or they might have the same disorder at different levels of severity. Many studies show the chance that they both have it if one twin does as somewhere between 82% and 97%. If the twins are fraternal (non-identical) twins and one has an autism spectrum disorder, the other has about the same chance of having an autism spectrum disorder as non-twin siblings do, which is greater than the chance of having an autism spectrum disorder in a family that does not have any history of it.

How might identical twins who were separated at birth be helpful in determining the roles of genes in mental illness?
This is more or less theoretical question. Identical twins getting separated at birth, then one or both should have some some sort of mental illness. You happen to see both of them. But then you can know the role of genes in development of mental disorder in some particular disorder. The role of environmental factors are almost nullified in that case.

Is Bipolar hereditary?
The mental illness bipolar disorder is thought to be genetic (hereditary) however we don't know of a specific gene that is responsible for it. It appears that many genes must be present for bipolar disorder to manifest, likely, along with other risk factors. This has been shown in twin studies. While identical twins share 100% of their DNA, if one twin has bipolar disorder other other twin does not have bipolar disorder 100% of the time. The rate of concordance of bipolar disorder type one in identical twins is between 33-90%, according to Medscape Reference.According to Medscape Reference, first-degree relatives of a person with bipolar disorder type one have a seven times greater risk of bipolar I than the general population. Additionally, major mental illnesses all seem to travel together as offspring of a parent with bipolar disorder have a 50% chance of having another major psychiatric disorder. It's important to note that even siblings raised in different households still show an elevated risk, illustrating that bipolar disorder is not only due to a shared environment but also genetics.
