Although peer pressure can influence adolescents’ alcohol use, individual susceptibility to these pressures varies across individuals. The dopamine receptor D4 gene (DRD4<span>) is a potential candidate gene that may influence adolescents’ susceptibility to their peer environment due to the role dopamine plays in reward sensation during social interaction. We hypothesized that </span>DRD4<span> genotype status would moderate the impact of 7th-grade antisocial peer pressure on 12th-grade lifetime alcohol use (</span>n<span> = 414; 58.7 % female; 92.8 % White). The results revealed significant main effects for antisocial peer pressure, but no main effects for</span>DRD4<span> genotype on lifetime alcohol use. Adolescent </span>DRD4<span> genotype moderated the association between peer pressure and lifetime alcohol use. For individuals who carried at least one copy of the </span>DRD4<span> 7-repeat allele (7+), antisocial peer pressure was associated with increased lifetime alcohol use. These findings indicate that genetic sensitivity to peer pressure confers increased alcohol use in late adolescence.</span>
Collagen
is a protein fiber that is found in the matrix that lies outside the bone
cells. Population of these collagen fibers that scattered through the matrix are
embedded in a gel-like ground substance called hyaline cartilage, which
is flexible but avascular and contains no nerves or blood vessels.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
What I can tell you about the Fitness LifeStyle and Design class is the following.
It is a great subject because you are going to learn about the importance and benefits of fitness and exercise in your daily life. Among the components of your course will be "Fitness Activities," "Safety measures in the gym or room," "Principles of Biomechanics," "How to create exercise programs for all kinds of people," and "clients needs."
You just have to pay attention because these are going to be new concepts with different terminologies.
