HNI_08-15 | What's compared is usually the " ;homologous regions " ;. That means literally " ;similar because of common descent " ;, but in practice, it means " ;similar enough that we think it's homologous " ;. Since parts of genomes can become duplicated, we sometimes have more than one homologous piece in a diffe... | 295 | [

HNI_08-15 | Nice, an article that links to sources in the prrimary scientific literature! Let's see, the link text says " ;potent immunotoxicants " ;, that's probably a study about the effects of PFAS on the immune system.
