Physically, two way show a striking re- . c*. but actually they are In cellular makeup of fitobody. This is true even of wfcMtteal twins, the educational e*MriMttee of the Illinois State Medical society states In a health Iklk. .. * ; :; Genetics, the brandh of science llealing Willi tile origin *ind genial composition of man, proves that heredity, however, play:? an anportant role in development. The baby's growth follows :i plan ; iMd down n'ne months before its 'birth. Life begins from the union m two cells, one from the too- 4her and. one from the father. 'Much of the destiny of the per- §on stems from these two celis. • ;.The sex is there, the hair,. eye . •nd skin color, body build; and., to some extent, _intelligence.,and.' • personality, in fact the. physical ; and mental makeup of every per- ,?|ton results from the "interplay of . three factors: the egg cell from the mother the sperm cell from the father, and the cnvi: onnient In which the individual lives before and after birtt. The parent cells are equal in their hereditary influence for each contain twenty-four chromosomes or tiny, rod-shaped bodies making1 up the nucleus of a Single cell. Each of the chromosomes is made up of some 50.000 Senes or units. The cell is so nail that it can be seen only through the microscope, yet crowded into it are the fortyeight chromosomes with their multitudinous genes surrounded by supportive structures. All are enclosed in a cell wall. Since all tissue is composed of these minute cells, one can understand the impossibility of counting them. Genps are* character carriers. When the male and female cells unite, each chromosome seeks its corresponding , chromosome and they unite gene for gene. Thus, one can; seek the-complex variations that do occur throughout familial generations. With such tefinite combinations, thnre can- Hot be two person" exactly ali'te. Ulie hereditary factors c& rled by the chromosomes snd t^c jenes are known as internal factors, set up in the very beginning With the union of the two parent ceils. External factors act on and modify the individual in all Stages of growth, from the fertilization of the ovum until death, and include the environment before and after birth. Enher blood. The father's role is important, for he is responsible, to a large extent, for the wife's nutrition, home and mental health. Thus, the genetic or hereditary predisposition is made up of internal factors involved in cellular development and the external factors made up of en. vironment. 1 Some diseases can be passed from parent to child, such as certain types of anemia, col6r blindness, diabetes, hemophilia or bleeder's disease, and some forms of blindrtfess and deafness. Certain physical abnormalities may also be inherited, as well as some mental diseases. Study of a family tree will show that favorable characteristics, as well as diseases, are also inherited. Phy sical /^>eauty, artistic ability^ musical talent and intelligence are passed from parents tq their offspring,:. . ' .V; If your ancestors gave: you sound bodies and fertile minds, you tan be grateful. With this combination, the unpleasant hereditary and environmental factors can be modified: By providing a congenial home for your children, supplying them with proper food, adequate medical and dental care, educational advantages and time to play, you will create a favorable 'cn- \ ironment. Thus you will enable them to be healtier, happier and better adjusted to life physically, i emotionally and economically.
