It could be many things,alot of times its a hormonal thing.There are many different situations as to why some women cant have children.

Gotta say more than that...what do you want to know?  Prob. only doc could answer anyway!

You're trying to say you have a synthetic chromosome. I would check all the experiments for contamination, and check the cells for endogenous expression before jumping to that conclusion. There are a lot of hurdles to leap, as mentioned in the other posts.

I'm very skeptical of a "god" gene.  A "gullibility" gene seems much more likely.\n\nYes, it is unfair to those who have been saddled with such a gene.  They'll have to work extra hard to overcome their disability.

Say it's a recessive gene.  Heterosexual parents without the expressed trait each contribute one allele.  Voila!  Gay kid from straight parents!  How does the recessive gene go on, you ask?  Siblings who only receive one allele.  (Do'h!)\n\nWell, there's one way of demonstrating flawed logic (or in your case, abysmal ignorance).

I think your understanding of the science is not quite there. The "gay gene" (or at least one of several reported as potentially being called such) does not define a trait or characteristic but rather it pre-disposes. That is, it is not like a gene for determining eye colour.  It requires other influences to produce a non-hetero adult.  Some of these determining influences are (or have been) intimated as being one or more of: behavioural, biochemical, psychological or pathological.\n\nFor example, pick any one of the expectant mother's endocrine glands -  and you can be sure that an "over-production" of some hormone has been attributed as (contributing to) the cause of SOMETHING in the post-natal child.\n\nI do take exception to the word "flaw" in your commentary.  It may be a difference and, indeed (as you go on to say), it does then lessen the chances of their procreating but it has no place (being subjective) in the objectivity of a scientific question.\n\nMy last point, I would especially like you to consider, when deriving your conclusion, and that is:\n\n1)Given the empirical approach of Science (building blocks to construct knowledge) \n2)the increasing specialisation of its adherents (e.g. from scientist to chemist to biochemist to neurochemist to neuro- toxicist)\n3)the continued existence of non-heterosexuals (despite bell book and ban e.g. Aversion therapy)\n\nIs there an overarching reason that non-heteros exist? \n\nIf there is a scientific reason for their existence (cause as yet undetermined) it has not been recognised because the different strands of Science (which would combine to prove or, at least postulate the idea), together with perhaps Psychology and Philosophy are so distended from one another.     \n\nI hope that this was reasoned enough and provides food for thought.\n\nRegards

I think you're pretty much spot on with your question.  There's nothing to suggest it's hereditary and in fact, ADHD / ADD is little more than a modern 'convenience illness'.  In many cases it's used as a label applied to badly behaved kids and is often done so by physicians in order to make parents feel better about themselves.\n\nThe reliable research that's been done very strongly suggests that it's environmental factors not hereditary ones and as you pointed out, diet is one of the most influential factors.  Others include peers, school, parents, society, media and all those other things that affect the way a child behaves.\n\nThe general consensus amongst the experts is that it's not even a condition per se but just a politically correct and socially acceptable way of rebranding a misbehaving child.\n\nThe genetic 'link' is most probably due to the fact that children are likely to lead a similar lifestyle to their parents.  If someone is bought up on burgers and fries then they're likely to bring their children up in a similar way.

What is the color of sound?\n\nIn other words, your question makes no sense. "Molecular Genetics" is a field of study, not a process.

first question:  I believe it is in the genes.  You either "get" words, or you don't\n\nSecond question (saved 2 points good for you)  I don't believe they do.  I'm not really sure what you mean.

If it is inhereted then you need to go see a genetic counsseler. They will trace your family pedegree for the trait and find out if it is dominant or reccesive and the likelyhood of passing it on. But as a fair warning if it is somewhat rare and the effects show in you then it is probably reccesive so you have a 100% chance of passing it on. However if it is reccesive and your partener does not pass it on then it wont effect your kids :) ...\n\nsorry if you already know this, my point is you should se a genetic counseler. They will tell you everything you need to know.

This is just a try... Physical education is the study of sports and dancing and exercises, also bodily movements... Genetics is about part of biology study dealing with herredity and variation... these two deals with activities of  humans and animals. Activities of human depends upon its capacity dependent upon its genetic origin or her/his capacity to do certain thing. Example :you can't join basketball team if you are not tall enough qualifying the height requirement... here you genetics comes in... If you never inhereted such good height from your parents or any of your kin , you won,t qualify as basketball player... That's only one corelation of physical education and genetics..

Possibly a recessive gene that came forward in you.\n\nThere is a surgery for it, while painful, it may do a world of good for your physically and emotionally.

It can definatly be genetic. If your parent(s) had one of these cases, it can be inherited, but also environmental factors contribute...stress levels can cause these chemical imbalances too. There are lots of things, if the traits are inherited, you can just be more at risk of developing these habits, and something can go on in your atmosphere that can set off these conditions.
