Genetics is the science of genes, heredity, & variation of organisms, by studying organisms and genetic information generally carried in chromosomes, where it is represented in the chemical structure of particular DNA molecules. Genes encode the information necessary for synthesizing proteins, that play a large role in influencing, although, in many instances, do not completely determine, the final phenotype of an organism.

When looking to find a relationship between a set of human conditions and the genetic makeup then it is not a test, it is research. I'm asking you to do a test, not research. But as you have demonstrated clearly you don't have the gonads to do it properly lest you fail. So go on and bring in all the irrelevant diversions and cop out as I predicted you would. You are proving to be no better than the rest of you clan. What you’re saying …
