Abstract
The AA. have studied the characteristical steps of the first and permanent dentition on 408 twin pairs (156 MZ and 252 DZ). These phenomena appear to be significantly genetically controlled. According to the AA., the hereditary units might possess a characteristic potential time span, which is a function of an energetic genetically conditioned charge. This parameter of the hereditary unit is called Chronon.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
