Summary Introduction

To determine: The correlation between body hair and intelligence based on the research by Dr. Alias.

Introduction: Genetics is a branch of biology, which deals with the molecular basis of inheritance in the species. The inherited traits are those traits, which an individual gets from their parents and the behavioral traits are those who are learned by an individual.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The factors that contribute to intelligence.

Summary Introduction

To describe: The individuals with little or no body hair are consistently less intelligent than their hairy counterparts.

Students have asked these similar questions
From your previous experiment, you found that this enhancer activates stripe 2 of eve expression. When you sequence this enhancer you find several binding sites for the gap gene, Giant. To test how Giant interacts with eve, you decide to remove all of the Giant binding sites from the eve enhancer. What results do you expect to see with respect to eve expression?
What experiment could you do to see if the maternal gene, bicoid, is sufficient to form anterior fates?
You’re curious about the effect that gap genes have on the pair-rule gene, evenskipped (eve), so you isolate and sequence each of the eve enhancers. You’re particularly interested in one of the enhancers, which is just upstream of the eve gene.  Describe an experimental technique you would use to find out where this particular eve enhancer is active.
