A huge question relating to this topic is whether sexuality is passed through genetics or not. It has been a huge social debate for awhile. Some people think sexuality is, in fact, genetic and some think that someone’s sexual orientation is choice. Finally, that question has been answered. There was a study conducted on 818 gay men (409 pairs of openly homosexual brothers) by collected blood and saliva samples. All these men shared prominent patterns in two regions of the human genome- one on the X chromosome and one on chromosome 8. Researchers of that experiments had a theory that any single nucleotide polymorphisms steadily found among these men would have something to do with sexuality. The results showed that five presented SNP’S (single nucleotide polymorphisms) did end up
