Part 1: The Cytochrome-c tree, anomalies, and why anomalies exist (Disclaimer: I’m not in the field of bioinformatics.) Cytochrome-C is a protein involved in turning food and oxygen into energy. It’s found in Eukaryotes – which means all multicellular life (plants and animals) and some single-celled life (fungus and yeast). The fact that it’s so [...]

None of the definitions in UrbanDictionary make sense. Maybe he really hates small dogs? Does he just hate the “Child Molesting Homosexuals”, or all Child Molesters?
