Who Knew That Gene Research Would Show Same Genes Act Different In Women And Men?
Who knew is my favorite subject. Researching modern technology and its ramifications on the baby boomer generation can be a challenge. I am aware that there are genetic differences between men and women. This begins with the X and Y chromosomes. A study at UCLA has found that thousands of genes behave differently based on which body they are in – male or female. This could be part of the reason that diseases affect the sexes differently and drugs work differently. The researchers were looking for genetic clues for diseases such as mental illness, obesity, diabetes and heart disease in humans. Did you know that humans and mice share ninety-nine percent of their genes? The basic difference is the *** chromosome. The X and the Y chromosome account for less than two percent of the genes in the human body. More than half of the genes differ significantly between the sexes. This is true for all the primary functions of a wide variety of organs. They decided that gender influences important g
