Is carpal tunnel genetic or caused by being obese?
Neither. The Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a result of repetitive movements done over a long period of time. You may be genetically prone to it or obesity may make it worse, but neither is a cause.
Is genetic engineering a good thing or a bad thing?
It could be argued that genetic research is neither good nor bad, it is the application of the research that may be good or bad. For example, a rich dictator creating a clone of himself - bad thing, a cure for Parkinson's disease - good thing.
Does a child with a genetic liver disease deserve a liver transplant more than a 60 year old alcoholic?
No, neither is entitled to a liver transplant by way of their status. It's by the generosity of the donor who died that one be available, and if the liver has been donated by typical means, then it's left up to a bureaucracy to decide the recipient on behalf of the donor.
How does genetic variation affect the type of traits of adaptations in the individuals of a species?
Variation in and of itself does not affect the traits seen in the overall population. This is because gene frequency and subsequent changes in phenotype generally occur only when the phenotype is "selected" for or against in a population. Granted increased genetic variation is the potential for change, however just as in physics potential has to be acted on for change to occur.The population of a species represents it's entire gene pool. The Hardy-Weinburg Principle states that the frequency of a gene remains the same as long as it is neither selected for or against.Smaller populations can change rapidly due to genetic drift and isolation (which is more of a twist of random probability than selection, like getting heads ten times in a row tossing a penny) selection translates into change in a larger population.
What is pnuemetic compmparatance?
review how you are spelling this, neither is a word.
Have you ever heard anyone say that having blue eyes is a genetic disfunction passed down from generation to generation and is a chemical imbalance?
Having blue eyes is neither a genetic dysfunction nor a chemical imbalance. That is a new one. Genetic dysfunctions and chemical imbalances are not generally passed down from generation to generation. Whoever told you they were has never heard of Charles Darwin and his Theory of Evolution.
Is cerebral palsy dominant or recessive?
Neither, it is from a lack of oxygen from birth, it is not genetic
When an offspring has a new genetic variation that it got from neither of its parents it is called a?
mutation
How do you get zoura in second evolution in platinum?
Neither Zorua or Zoroark exist anywhere in the game
Are measles genetic or hereditary?
Neither. They can't be passed through genes. They are passed by contact.
Did Charles Mendel develop the theory of natural selection in the 1800 and not include a genetic explanation?
No. He, whoever he may have been, neither included nor considered such as far as anyone is aware. However Gregor Mendel did significant work on genetics, though he did cheat. Charles Darwin, later, proposed a theory of evolution based on natural selection. Which is not the only theory of evolution. But seems to fit the facts.
What is the Muslim view on Genetic engineering?
genetic engineering is allowed as long as it is with in Islamic conext a hadith say there should be neither harm nor reciprocating injury
Why is evolution misleading?
It isn't, since a neither a theory nor a natural phenomenon can be misleading, only people can
Is schizophrenia autosomal recessive or dominant?
Schizophrenia is only partially genetic, and therefore is neither recessive nor dominant.
Can evolution fail?
What do you mean by 'fail'? Are you thinking of 'evolution' as a living purpose-driven entity? It is not. The word describes what many believe to be a process of the natural world. It neither succeeds nor fails. It is what it is.
Which parent contributes the most genetically?
Neither, each of the two parents contribute 1/2 of the genetic material.
Did Darwin believe in continuous or discontinuous?
He believed in neither, he thought that a species would continue not in its own form, rather a form that experienced evolution
