“Unlocking the Secrets of Your Genes: What Your Physical Traits Really Say About You!”
Researchers believe that the social expectations of a name can alter how we look. For instance, a person may dress or present themselves in a specific way based on the cultural associations of their name.
Light-Colored Eyes Help People Cope With Pain
Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh found a correlation between pain tolerance and eye color. While observing 58 pregnant women, scientists found that women with lighter eyes tolerated the pain of childbirth better. “Lighter eyes” meant blue and green eyes, while “darker eyes” were brown and hazel.
The link between pain tolerance and eye color is likely genetic. According to Dr. Jari Louhelainen, a biomolecular scientist, at least 12 gene variations control a person’s eye color. Dark eye color comes from melanin, a pigment that may heighten pain in some people.
Brown-Eyed People React Quickly
According to research, people with brown eyes may perform better at tennis than their blue-eyed friends. A study in Personality and Individual Differences found that brown eyes are the result of melanin. This pigment also controls the connections between brain cells.
People with more melanin send signals quickly through neurons. Hence, brown-eyed people could have faster reaction times than blue-eyed people. Of course, this is all relative; a blue-eyed master of tennis will always beat a brown-eyed beginner.
