On the soap opera “The Young and the Restless”, several individuals suffer from a rapid aging syndrome in which a young child is sent off to boarding school and returns three months later an angry teenager. Victims have been known to age up to two decades in variations of the disorder. In the Newman family, siblings Nicholas and Victoria aged from ages six and eight to sixteen and eighteen within a few months. Their parents, Victor and Nikki, are not affected; in fact, they never seem to age at all.   A. What is the mode of inheritance of the rapid aging disorder affecting Nicholas and Victoria?     B. Explain your reasoning:

Emotions

Emotions are biologically based psychological conditions caused by neurophysiological changes which are linked to different factors such as thoughts, emotions, behavioral responses, and pleasure or displeasure. These emotions are not similar to moods. The mood is an affective state. Mood depends upon several factors, such as weather, the environment, physiology, etc. Emotions can be beneficial or detrimental depending on the situation. Emotional reactions are simple. Emotional well-being is strongly affected by our well-being, and such feelings are private.
