This range shows overdominance because heterozygous individuals make a mixture of two proteins with different optimums. Overdominance is a genetic phenomenon.

<h3>Overdominance and genetics</h3>

Overdominance is a phenomenon that occurs when the phenotype of a heterozygous individual is found outside the range of homo-zygous individuals.

This phenomenon (overdominance) is relatively common in genetics.

Overdominance confers an adaptive advantage to heterozygous individuals.

Explain how a crime lab could use paper chromatography to determine if lipstick found at a crime scene matched the lipstick of a
FromTheMoon [43]

Explanation:

The lipstick from the crime would be crushed and dissolved in an appropriate liquid solvent. The lipstick would then be placed in one of the ink spots on the starting / base line of the paper. Another spot would be created for the lipstick with which it is being compared with.

The paper chromatogram would then be placed vertically on a solvent that acts as the mobile phase. After some time, when the solvent reaches the solvent front  of the paper chromatography, by capillary action, the chromatogram can be removed and left to dry.

Bands will have appeared on the chromatography paper formed from the different components of the lipstick. The bands of the lipstick from the crime scene and that with which it is being compared to are observed. If the bands are all aligned, horizontally, then this means it is a complete match. The lipstick must have been the same used at the crime scene.

In a healthy joint,a protective cartilage cushions the end of bones(articulating bones) and as well acting as a shock absorber.

In osteoarthritis,these cartilage that acts as a cushion to the bones wears down down or generates with time exposing the joint and the bones predisposing them to mild to moderate friction that occurs as a result of mobility of the bones/joint.

Osteoarthritis mostly affect joints of the hips, hands,spine and knees.

Some of the common symptoms of Osteoarthritis are;pain in the joints of the hands,knees,hips,lower back and neck with crackles,stiffness and tenderness of the joints which often results to difficulty in walking and deformity of the joint if left untreated.
