thus “erased”‚ can lead to homosexuality when they escape erasure and are transmitted from father to daughter or mother to son. The researchers integrated evolutionary theory with recent advances in the molecular regulation of gene expression and androgen-dependent sexual development to produce a biological model that delineates the role of epigenetics in homosexuality. Epi-marks constitute an extra layer of information attached to our genes’ backbones that regulates their expression. While genes

Should birth control be treated the same way as other medications? Birth control is one of the most controversial topics that has been discussed nowadays.

Endocrine The endocrine gland system helps produce and deliver hormones. These help take control of many important body parts. It also helps your body change your calories into energy. Endocrine system is important because it impacts how your heart beats‚ how your tissues grow and even if you can have a baby. It also plays a role if you would or wouldn’t develop thyroid‚ growth disorders‚ or a host of other hormone related disorders. The glands of the endocrine system let go of specific hormones

SRY gene switches another gene called SOX9 which switches other genes that masculine the brain and the body by controlling the release of hormones including the most important hormone the androgen testosterone. SRY gene determines both biological sex and gender in gender development‚ in rare cases where an XY male has a mutant non-functioning version of the SRY gene they will develop into normal fertile woman who develops female gender roles

period‚ and because a child’s gender identity is established by then‚ it cannot thereafter be changed without causing the child significant psychological problems. Early research did support this hypothesis. Goldwyn cites the case of Mrs DW‚ who had androgen insensitivity syndrome‚ but was brought up as a woman. When informed that she was biologically male‚ she felt that she was a woman and elected to remain that way. This shows that social factors strongly influence our gender identity; more so perhaps
