Individuals differences in IQ help us predict
A
when someone will learn a new skill.
B
how quickly someone will learn a new skill.
C
what kind of skill someone will learn.
D
if someone will relearn a new skill.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Does IQ affect learning ability? Most studies on the relationship between intelligence and learning find little difference in measures of participant’s intelligence (such as an IQ test) and measures of their ability to learn. This suggests a strong correlation-or even an identity-between the two concepts.

Detailed explanation-2: -Men and women have almost identical intelligence, but men have more variability in their IQ scores than women do. On average, men do better than women on tasks requiring spatial ability, whereas women do better on verbal tasks and score higher on emotional intelligence.

Detailed explanation-3: -Researchers also indicate that personality traits influence learning in children. Children with negative personality traits, such as introversion, pessimism and rebelliousness, will not learn on the same pace as children with more positive personality traits.

Detailed explanation-4: -Past studies have also shown that high IQs are comparably reliable in predicting academic success, job performance, career potential and creativity. Antonakis says high IQs are particularly notable predictors for success in highly complicated, skilled occupations like physicist, engineer or even neurosurgeon.
