Explanation:

Intelligence can be defined as a measure of the ability of an individual to think, learn, proffer solutions to day-to-day life problems and effectively make informed decisions.

Raymond Cattell was a psychologist who in 1963 the theory of intelligence. In his work he stated that, intelligence (intellectual abilities) can be divided into two (2) categories and these includes;

I. Fluid intelligence: it simply involves possessing the ability to think and reason in an abstract manner while solving problems. Thus, it is not dependent on formal education, learning or experience.

II. Crystallized intelligence: it involves possessing the ability to think and reason using one's experience or knowledge derived through formal education and learning.

Critical thinking can be define as an attempt by a person to make sense of messages in order to determine if a proof supports the overall claim, probability, and credibility of information sources.

Basically, when an individual critically analyzes and measure the authenticity and credibility of an information source, proof and probability of an issue occurring, he or she is engaging in critical thinking.
