Researchers have compared the genomes of almost 3500 anorexia patients with 11,000 others and have identified

A) a gene difference on chromosome 12.
B) brain variations in those with and without eating disorders.
C) reduced amygdala sizes in those suffering from anorexia.
D) no epigenetic marks related to anorexia.

Genomes

The complete set of DNA, including all of its genes, in an organism, providing the biological instructions it needs to grow, develop, and function.

Chromosome 12

One of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans, which contains genes that are vital for normal development and function.

Epigenetic Marks

Modifications to the genome that affect gene expression without changing the DNA sequence itself.
