Mo dropped him off at the shopping center and drove into traffic without looking back. He took the escalator to the upper level and walked into Shirokya, drawn by Japanese muzak and pretty packaging. The Japanese were incapable of bad design, he thought. It was in their genes or something. Or maybe it was just that they cared.
"I've got my roommate's for the night." When they got into the car, Sue twisted and reached past Patrick to arrange something on the back seat behind him. She was sweating slightly, and he was astonished by her sweet rich smell. "That's strange," he said, "we've got the same smell. How can that be? Same genes? I'm mostly Irish. What are you?" "Half Polish, half Ojibwa," she said.
The general conclusions which are logically to be drawn from our present knowledge with regard to the problems of heredity and evolution in animals are in my opinion as follows: All attempts to explain adaptation by gametogenic mutations, or changes in gametic factors or 'genes, have completely failed, as Bateson himself has admitted.
Tonight, as part of our gift to the millennium, I propose a 21st Century research fund for pathbreaking scientific inquiry, the largest funding increase in history for the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the National Cancer Institute. We have already discovered we have already discovered genes for breast cancer and diabetes.
When the second dawn came, the Bunch were all tautly and wearily alert again, peering ahead, across dun desert. There wasn't much fallout from the carefully developed hydrogen-fusion engines of the GO rockets, but maybe there was enough to distort the genes of the cacti a little, making their forms more grotesque. Along the highway there were arrows and signs.
"Ma foi," said the young man; "was it possible there could be two answers to such a question?" "Take the post-chaise which you will find waiting at the Porte de Genes, as you enter Nice; pass through Turin, Chambery, and Pont-de-Beauvoisin. Go to the Count of Monte Cristo, Avenue des Champs Elysees, on the 26th of May, at seven o'clock in the evening, and demand of him your father.
The evidence concerning sex and sex-linked characters and the localisation of their factors in the chromosomes of the gametes has no bearing on the action of hormones. The facts concerning the action of hormones are beyond the scope of current conceptions of the action of factors or genes localised in the gametes and particularly in the chromosomes.
A tribe contained three phratries, or fraternities a phratry contained three genes or clans a genos or clan was composed of thirty heads of families. It has been conjectured indeed by some, that from a class not included in these families, vacancies in the phratries were filled up; but this seems to be a less probable supposition than that which I have stated above.
For example, researchers have identified genes that cause Parkinson's Disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancer and they are designing precision therapies that will block the harmful effects of these faulty genes for good. Researchers are already using this new technique to target and destroy cells that cause breast cancer.
Good genes helped, too, Don thought. Not to mention the financial wisdom of dear departed Redmond. An hour later Don said goodnight. Feeling almost a member of the family, he went downstairs and fell asleep on the bed in the basement. The next day he made his way to the park. "Mornin', Ruby." "Morning to you. You late today." "Going to be a long day. I'm taking the train north." "Oh, my."
