Obesity and Genetics Stephanie Ferreyra Obesity is characterized by a high amount of body fat or adipose tissue. This condition is common‚ but varies from individual to individual. There are other factors that play a role in obesity other than eating too much of the wrong foods‚ not exercising‚ or age‚ and gender. This factor is genetics. People with genetic risk factors that affect energy metabolism and result in an inborn susceptibility to gain weight are much different than a person who loses

How do we know we know what each individual gene does? One way to investigate the function of a gene is to just remove the gene and analyze what happens to the organism. Let’s say we have a gene of unknown function in the human genome‚ an unidentified gene. First‚ compare it to other genes to see what similar sequences they have‚ if they code some similar sequences they might code for similar functions. However‚ if the gene the unidentified gene codes for something different we have seen before this
