The Importance of Naming Beneficiaries One of the most overlooked yet important elements of estate planning is the naming of beneficiaries. When opening an IRA, a retirement account at work, or purchasing an insurance policy, the owner (account holder) is asked to name a beneficiary, and most name a spouse or children. It is important to name a beneficiary to prevent property from having to pass through probate, the legal process of settling an estate after death, which can be a long and…

Along with this opinion is the assumption that they cannot be trusted with large cumbersome responsibilities. While it is true that teenagers can be…

Mendel’s contribution to genetics isn’t wrong, there are some exceptions of inheritances that do not follow Mendel’s principles. Non-mendelian inheritance traits include maternal effects, epigenetics, and extranuclear genes. What makes traits non-mendelian is if their phenotypic patterns do not follow in accordance with Mendels laws. Maternal effects being one of the many exceptions to Mendels laws, involves the pattern of inheritance in which the phenotype of the offspring for a…
apterous drosophila were bred with wild-type drosophila, the data was congruent with similar studies on the drosophila: the apterous trait was shown to be an autosomal recessive trait that follows the pattern of Mendelian inheritance. These findings further support Gregor Mendel’s laws of inheritance, which further support the field of biology as a whole. Drosophila Melanogaster, known as the common fruit fly, has been extensively studied for over a century (Met 1914, Stevens 1985, Arias…
