But how do you define “undesirable”? There is anecdotal evidence that the incidence of some disorders has decreased due to genetic testing (<a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/02/17/AR2010021700003.html">see “Testing Curbs Some Genetic Diseases,” by Marilyn Marchione</a>). In and of itself, this is a good thing, but is this eugenics? It would be hard to argue that most genetic diseases are undesirable; but some of the steps taken to eliminate disease — abortion, embryo screening — are controversial.</p> <p>In contrast, there was a an effort to prevent hereditary blindness within the eugenics movement.

Different proteins have different functions, each contributing to your various traits and functions.</p> <p>Why do we often see similar traits among parents and offspring? We inherit our DNA from our mother and father. This means we have half of our genes, or recipes, from our mom and half from our dad.

Do genes always follow the rules that the “Father of Genetics” observed in his garden? Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate Mendel and his contribution to genetics, but the exceptions seem much more interesting!</p> <p>For example, many genes are pleiotropic, meaning they affect more than one phenotype. How about the recent development on red heads and anasthetics? I happen to live with a red head, from a long line of red heads, so in our family this was a topic of discussion for days.
