Genetic Studies of Genius

Introduction God and Nature first made us what we are, and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be… Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement – Marcus Garvey (1887-1940). Cloning and genetically modifying humans is now more attainable than ever due to strides made by science. With a relatively short history, cloning and genetic engineering have been a new concept for many people in society with the first proof of cloning being dolly the sheep, the

number of yearly diagnoses of the disorder has increased since the late 20th century. The National Institute of Health estimates that 1 in 88 children in the United States are classified as having an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) (NINDS, 2009), a genetic neurodevelopmental disorder that impairs children 's ability to learn and causes issues with social interaction and communication. Symptoms of ASD include delays in speech and language, issues with social interaction, and unusual behaviors/routines

“GOOD WILL HUNTING” MOVIE (1997) Will Hunting, a 20-year-old janitor at a college, is a mathematics genius who underage drinks with his friends. In the college where he is the janitor, a professor has written an impossible equation that Will goes and resolves. No one really knows who did it and when the professor finds out who resolved it, Will Hunting runs into more trouble, as he engages in a fight along with his friends and ends up punching a cop, this lands him in court room in front of a judge

cause of genetic diversity is mutations; mutations occur randomly and can produce beneficial or harmful nucleotide sequences. Nucleotide sequences code for the production of proteins that perform the majority of roles in our bodies. When harmful mutations halt protein production or cause malicious protein production, the body can be effected in numerous ways. The majority of disorders expressed by humans across the globe are genetic, meaning that the DNA of the individual with the genetic disorder

but they presumably have the same biological basis (Frith, 2004). Beside the genetic argument, the outcome of high functioning autism adult is almost indistinguishable to individual with Asperger to the point that it is difficult to view them separately. High functioning autism in adulthood without delay in language development is similar to adult who previously diagnosed with autism and delayed language development. A study analyzing neuro-anatomic structure of the brain finds out that autism and Asperger

What will end the world as we know it? It could be climate change, disease, famine, or global war. If none of those come to pass there is always the truth that we are breeding our IQ into the basement. It’s called dysgeneic fertilization, and it has been happening for as long as we’ve been recording intelligence. Although this decline can be seen across the board, not everyone is affected the same way or to the same extent. With each generation that passes a gap widens between those retaining

The circumstances of living with William’s Syndrome can be well put by one of Albert Einstein’s famous quotes: “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” Despite the consequences of having William’s Syndrome and, therefore a lower than average I.Q., individuals could more than excel when

can cause harm to the organism. 2.1 Advantages of Cloning The cloning process is beneficial since it can create a transgenic organism. The cloning research starts with the production of plant that have the same characteristics or to create a new genetic by combining two or more different types of plants. Cloning in

Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night - Edgar Allen Poe When you are insane, you are busy being insane - all the time... When I was crazy, that's all I was. - Sylvia Plath Is creative genius somehow woven together with "madness"? According to the dictionary, "to create" is "to bring into being or form out of nothing." Such a powerful, mysterious, and even

Treffert’s belief the knowledge these savants have obtained has always been with them is clearly evidenced as he uses terms like ‘factory installed’, ‘genetic memory’, ‘racial memory’ and ‘ancestral memory’ when attempting to explain the phenomena he has witnessed first-hand. During the course of the article Treffert goes on to cite additional studies and books written by himself as well as his peers verifying the fact that there is no way possible for the individuals to have learned or acquired their
