A SEP IRA (Simplified Employee Pension) is a retirement plan that is popular with many small business owners and self employed individuals. The 2015 SEP IRA contribution limit is $53,000 (the 2014 SEP limit is $52,000).
Meanwhile, other studies suggest that another gene, DRD4, may also play a role in traits such as shyness and anxiety. The DRD4 gene codes for a protein that binds dopamine, another chemical messenger that has powerful effects in the brain. Again, the DRD4 gene comes in two forms: a long and a short version.
Genes determine traits, or characteristics, such as eye, skin, or hair color, of all sexually-reproducing species. Each gene consists of two alleles: one comes from the mother and one from the father. Some alleles are dominant, meaning they ultimately determine the expression of a trait.Other alleles are recessive and are much less likely to be expressed.When a dominant allele is paired with a recessive allele, the dominant allele determines the characteristic. When these traits or characteristics are visibly expressed, they are known as phenotypes.The genetic code behind a trait is known as the genotype.hen a dominant allele is paired with a recessive allele, the dominant allele determines the characteristic. When these traits or characteristics are visibly expressed, they are known as phenotypes.
