The obvious function of the Prologue as introduction to the Verona of Romeo and Juliet can obscure its deeper, more important function. The Prologue does not merely set the scene of Romeo and Juliet, it tells the audience exactly what is going to happen in the play. The Prologue refers to an ill-fated couple with its use of the word “star-crossed,” which means, literally, against the stars. Stars were thought to control people’s destinies. But the Prologue itself creates this sense of fate by providing the audience with the knowledge that Romeo and Juliet will die even before the play has begun. The audience therefore watches the play with the expectation that it must fulfill the terms set in the Prologue. The structure of the play itself is the fate from which Romeo and Juliet cannot escape.

Answer:

Genetics affect almost everything about you.

Explanation:

Hi there,

Genetics influences what sort of traits you will inherit from your parents, regardless of good or bad traits. For example, your appearance can be similar to other family members since your genetics is derived from your parents and older relatives. Genetics also influence other things about you such as the diseases you may have or your life expectancy. While genetics influences the physical aspects about you, it does not have direct influence over who you are as a person.

Hope this answer gives you a good idea about genetics. Feel free to follow up with some questions.

Cheers.
