Who discovered clubfoot?

The condition known as clubfoot has been documented since ancient times. However, it was Dr. Ignacio Ponseti who developed the effective Ponseti method for treating clubfoot in the 1940s, revolutionizing its management.


Can clubfoot be pass from father to child?

Yes, there can be a genetic link to clubfoot, but it is not always directly inherited from the father. Instead, it can be a combination of genetic and environmental factors. If one parent has clubfoot, the child may be at a higher risk of developing the condition.


What are the Kinds of variation?

Variations are of following types:- 1.Somatic and Germinal Variations. 2.Continuous and Discontinuous Variations. 3.Determinate and Indeterminate Variations. 4.Meristic and Substantive Variations. 5.Other Variations.


Do the variations that occur among individuals of a species are or are not passed on to offspring?

The variations that occur among individuals of a species can be passed on to offspring if they are genetic traits. Genetic variations arise from mutations, recombination, and other processes, and these can be inherited by the next generation. However, variations that are acquired due to environmental factors or experiences (phenotypic variations) are typically not passed on genetically. Thus, only heritable variations contribute to the genetic diversity of future generations.


What determines which variations are selected for or against?

The ability of those variations to survive and be reproductively successful against other variations in the immediate selective environment. The coin evolution pays in is reproductive success.
