"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."

How are long time periods measured in biological systems? So your question relates to successful and timely development and maturation of an organism? And how is this regulated? |

Ultrasound during pregnancy @TobiasKienzler that really didn't twig when I first read it, but you are correct. The FDA just lumps it in with other medical imaging (under Radiation Emitting Products). Presumably the blurb was written by a web-developer rather than someone involved with ultrasound... |

Is there a physiological difference between love and infatuation? The distinction (if there even is one) is likely to be at the psychological level, rather than biological... but that's just my gut feeling - I've not read that anywhere! |

Is there a physiological difference between love and infatuation? My point was simply that the interpretation of the words is quite subjective, unless you define them in the question. E.g. dictionary.com definition #1 for infatuation is [to inspire or possess with a foolish or unreasoning passion, as of love], and love as [a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person]. Is this how you interpret them? Or would you say they feelings are more divergent? In my opinion you could probably use either definition for each word, depending on the context. |

Terminology question: the scope of an allele in an organism I have never seen a term applied to that - although there was a question on here a few weeks ago about something similar. Can't find it now though! |

Is there a physiological difference between love and infatuation? Could you elaborate on what you feel the distinction between the 2 is? Infatuation could just mean obsession, whereas love could imply a more physical attraction? |
