Identifying the genetic sex of a child is based on finding intracellular Barr bodies that consist of inactive chromatin material.

Inactive chromatin material is the one where no transcription takes place. It is also known by the name heterochromatin. It appears as a dark condensed form in the chromatin.

Barr bodies are the inactive X chromosomes. These are mad inactive by a process termed as lyonization. It is essential to make the chromosome inactive in organisms with XY type of sex determination. They are present at the periphery of the nucleus. Inactivation of X chromosome makes the amount of X chromosomes equal in both, males and females.

Thomas Malthus:

Thomas Malthus was not a biologist, but an economist who proposed the ideas that at the rate of the current population growth, human population would eventually suffer from famine and starvation.This would lead to the deaths of the weakest of the population. This idea inspired Darwin to formulate the idea of "the survival of the fittest".

Charles Lyell and James Hutton:

Charles Lyell and James Hutton were famous geologists who greatly influenced Darwin with their theories about the beginning and evolution of the Earth. Charles Lyell proposed that the present state of the Earth was a result of small, gradual changes. James Hutton theorized that the processes that too place at the beginning of the Earth were still in progress.

Lyell and Hutton's work paved the way for the formulation of the theory of natural selection.
