Genes

The study of genes is s fascinating to me that I would just refer to it after a quarrel just to calm myself down.

Personality, behaviour and alot other stuff is affected by the gene. It was bargained that 30 % of our personality is controlled by inheritance and 70% of it by the environment. Genes is becoming so important to us in the society that certain functions such as as DNA tests, etc cannot function without it.

They now have genetic tests which are able to tell you where your ancestors migrated from and where they migrated across before telling you that you finally appeared. It is just so fascinating and amazing how much genes can tell us. Kudos to the Project Genome by the states to come up with the map of all the genes. oh yar, they are also probably capable of telling you that you would probably die of cancer and stuff like that.

Perhaps someday in the future, a guy gets down on one knee and proposed to a lady,"would you marry me?" The lady would probably tell the guy these ,"do you carry good genes? please bring along a copy of your genetic report and we shall see what your genes will say about you.thanks."

The guy would be left in shock. =)

The material I used is largely influenced by a great guy and lecturer named Richard Mcdonough.
