"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the values you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memory of your loved ones. I am not afraid."

What type of biome is this? I'm not familiar with the definitions of a tropical savanna I'm afraid. Is this a homework question? |

Difference between Condensin and Cohesin proteins? You can edit your original question (by clicking 'edit', next to the vote buttons) to make it clearer, and tidy it up. I can do this if you would rather. Also my name is Luke, feel free to use it! :) |

Difference between Condensin and Cohesin proteins? Hi and welcome to bio.SE! When asking your questions, try to be as clear and provide as much information as is possible/relevant to help you get the best answer. Here, I think you need to separate your questions out a bit - you're asking about the difference in functions of the 2 proteins (cohesin and condesin), and you're also asking about cohesin's role in forming the kinetochore (related, but slightly separate). And what are you referring to when you ask 'how do they vary'? The 2 proteins? Don't be afraid to write a couple of paragraphs so that it is clear what you're asking. Thanks. |

Why does squinting allow you to see clearer objects? I can't think of any harmful effects, can you? Maybe constantly squinting would actually alter the shape of your eye/retina slightly, thus meaning you'd always need to squint (or get glasses)? |

Average number of gene products in (a) eukaryote(s) I thought it was much higher than this! More in the region of 100's of thousands, because the majority of genes have at least 2 alternative isoforms, usually more... I'll try to find some evidence. If this is the case then I am surprised (also I'm not getting at you - I realize you have cited UniProt, arguably the authority on this!) |

Multi-nucleated cells: advantages and examples? @jello yes I realize that polymorphonuclear does not mean multiple nuclei, but 'mononuclear' does imply that 'ploynuclear' cells exist, and I am sure that muscle fibres do have multiple nuclei, because multiple cells fuse together. I'm interested to know the advantages of multiple nuclei, and what other cell types have it. Thanks |
