Were learning about recessive genes, and dominant genes so I thought this would be cool to find out about what hand everyone writes with. Supposedly, if youre Right-handed then its a dominant gene, and if your left-handed then its recessive. Being ambidexterous is just training your unused hand to write exactly alike. They dont know right now if being left handed is actually passed down from your parents genes though.
Im a full blown lefty!

I'm right handed. We just finished the chapter on genetics. It is really interesting.

We are still learning about genetics I think... But we're into all this different stuff and all that

I'm right handed. Aparently right-handers live longer, but I don't know if it's true.

It is! On average, left handed people die 9 years before right handed people. They die from using right handed made objects like scissors and stuff.

That's strange, does using right-handed things damage something? Or make it more tiring or something along those lines?

I guess it's harder for them to use it and they slip up or something... no idea to be truthful

But living longer? I'm not really inclined to believe that.

Maybe it has something to do with the way your body functions. I am right handed, but the entire right side of my body is stronger too. I kick soccer balls better with my right foot, I walk harder on that foot, I sleep on my left side to give the right a rest, I can wink better with my right eye, etc.
