Ever wonder why people all look and act differently? This informational text explains that people’s traits, like their different appearances and personalities, develop mainly from two sources: their parents' genes and the environment. As you read, identify the different ways how genes and environment can affect people’s traits.
Think about the building where you live. If it’s a house or an apartment building, it’s made up of water pipes, a roof, different rooms, and thousands of wooden boards. On your street there are probably many different buildings and each building is very, very complicated. For people to be able to live inside, all the thousands of different parts have to work and fit together. To build something with so many parts, architects1 have to draw every single part. They need to think about every electrical plug, toilet, and wall. The architects then give their drawings to people who build the house. These drawings are the instructions that show them what to build. Since there are so many different parts to put together, every building needs its own instructions.

Just like buildings, all people are built differently too. For instance, the people in your class might all have different colors of eyes, hair, and skin. People can change what they look like somewhat by cutting their hair or wearing different clothes. You can decide what some parts of you look like on the outside, but you can’t decide how you are built. The parts of you that you cannot change are in your genes. Genes are the instructions for your body and they are inside of every one of your cells.2 They are found in every other living thing on earth too, and are the instructions for how to make each of those things. Your genes tell your cells what to do. They tell your body how to grow, make you look a certain way, and even decide what your personality will be like.

Genes give you characteristics3 that can make you look the same as other people or very different from them. Your genes might give you brown eyes, black hair, and make you 5 feet 4 inches tall. All other living things also have characteristics that came from their genes. A palm tree might be tall, brown, skinny, and have green leaves at the top. Each of those is a characteristic of that palm tree. Another name for a characteristic that we use in science is trait. A trait is any part of a living thing that was determined by its genes, by its environment, or by both.

There are three different reasons why the person and the palm tree are the way they are:

Is it proper to write your Chinese friend’s name in red pen ?why

Answers

Answer:

In China, it is a taboo to write other people’s names using red ink (pen).

Explanation:

In ancient times, a death row criminal’s name was written in chicken blood, and later this evolved to being written in red ink. Thus, in all official records, the names of death sentence criminals were written in red ink.

It was said that Yán Wáng Yé, the King of Hell, also marked people about to come down to hell in red ink.

As well as the names of deceased or death row criminals, on their tombstones their names were written using red ink.

No because in China, people usually write a decreased persons name in red. So it’s seems like you are saying that your friend is dead

Answer:

Explanation:

Confucianism: Confucianism is a system of moral, social, political, and religious thought. It was made to stop the fall of Chinese society after the Zhou Dynasty. It has had a large influence on the history of Chinese civilization. Some people think it should be called a religion but others do not agree. It is still more important in China than any other religion. The teachings of Confucius focus on the respect of one's parents, elders, and ancestors. He also taught that humans 'can never stop learning'

Daoism- Taoism is a religion of unity and opposites; Yin and Yang. The Tao is the ultimate creative principle of the universe. It is also known as Daoism, which is a more accurate way of representing the sound of the Chinese word. The 2001 census recorded 3,500 Taoists in England and Wales. Before the Communist revolution fifty years ago, Taoism was one of the strongest religions in China. It has become difficult to assess the statistical popularity of Taoism in the world. The principle of Yin Yang sees the world as filled with complementary forces - action and non-action, light and dark.

Legalism- Legalism is a school of Chinese philosophy that came to prominence during the Warring States era. It formed the ideological basis of China's first imperial dynasty, the Qin. Legalists believed that political institutions should be modeled in response to the realities of human behaviour. They advocated government by a system of laws that rigidly prescribed punishments and rewards for specific behaviours. The brutal implementation of this policy by the authoritarian Qin dynasty led to that dynasty's overthrow.

चित्रकलाको विकासमा ग्रन्थचित्रको के कस्तो भूमिका रहेको छ, स्पष्ट पार

Answers

चित्रकलाको इतिहास निकै पुरानो छ । यसको सम्बन्ध मानव सभ्यताको इतिहाससँगै जोडिएको छ । मानव सभ्यताको विकाससँगै धर्म, संस्कृति, सामाजिक मूल्य मान्यतामा केन्द्रित भइ निर्माण गरिएका चित्रहरु परम्परागत, चित्रकलाका नमुना हुन् । आधुनिक चित्रकलाको सुरुवात निकै पछि भएपनि ग्रन्थचित्रहरुले त्यसको ठाउँ लिएका छन् । परम्परागत रुपमा केवल ग्रन्थको शोभा र विषय वस्तु स्पष्ट पार्न कोरिने ग्रन्थचित्रहरुको प्रभाव अहिले झनै बढ्न थालेको छ । विद्यार्थीलाई पढाउन, मनोभावनालाई खुलस्त पार्न र सिकाइका लागि वस्तुनिष्ठ बनाउन चित्रकलाको व्यापक प्रयोग गरिन्छ । यसको पूर्वज ग्रन्थचित्र नै हो । यसरी चित्रकलाको विकासमा ग्रन्थचित्रले उल्लेखनीय भूमिका पु¥याएको प्रष्ट हुन्छ ।

Soldier home after losing his leg in Afghanistan summary 5-7 sentences

Answers

Answer:

There was a man named Tristan Segers, a veteran, who lost his right leg due to an bomb explosion. Segers was able to make it through physical therapy and was able to live life as he wanted to. He never saw his prosthetic leg as a set back but as a challenge to overcome. He was not ashamed of his leg, in fact he would wear shorts in summer and run marathons with his prosthetic leg. Segers believed that when something bad happens to someone in life, mentally or physically, it shouldn't hold you back instead you should try to live life like it was before the event happened. Segers' story, motivated other veterans to not give up on life instead to fight and over come those obstacles.
