Leper sent Gene a telegram to inform him that he had deserted the army and needed help. He reached out to Gene, his friend from Devon School, as he was in a difficult situation and trusted Gene to provide support.
Gene becomes angry with Leper because he believes Leper has betrayed the group by fleeing the war and being discharged for being "crazy." Gene sees Leper's actions as weak and selfish, and the news of his breakdown forces Gene to confront his own insecurities and fears about his own capabilities in the war.
excuse my bad spelling :P On (PG.145) he calls him a " savage underneath" and he uses "like when you pushed Finny out of the tree." " Like that time you crippled him for life." This shatters the Image that Gene had of Leper, leper crossed the line.
During meiosis, the two alleles for each gene can separate into different gametes due to the process of random assortment and crossing over. This leads to different combinations of alleles in the resulting daughter cells.
Gene flow, which refers to the movement of genes between populations, is the most important factor that holds a gene pool together and prevents speciation. Gene flow allows for genetic diversity to be maintained within a population, reducing the likelihood of genetic drift or natural selection causing populations to diverge into separate species.
A hybrid gene is a gene that is formed from a combination of two different genes. It can be made by recombinant DNA technology. Hybrid genes possess at least one characteristic of both the genes combined.

The narrator is Gene, and the antagonist is Finny, short for Phineas, and there's Leper, for some guy with the last name Leppieller or something like that... he's not a very big character but i can't think of anymore with 'nicknames'
