Why would you need to separate a kitten from it's mom? There are so many cats in shelters, usually castrated already, that need a forever home.

The icoms would still have different shapes, right?

I should add that you can have many dysfunctional genes in your DNA without having any health problems if the genes regulate something optional like hair color and not vital like proper muscle production. So you can have lots of dysfunctional genes without having any medical dysfunction.

It's usually a mutation that doesn't allow the gene to work properly. An important part of the gene can be deleted or the DNA sequence is changed in some other way. Sometimes a change in just one letter of the code can break the functionality of the gene. When the cell tries to make a protein based on the mutated sequence, it produces a protein that cannot be used for any purpose in the body or it cannot produce the protein at all.

And now we've got two black female captains with great archs!

I was so disappointed when they introduced the Borg queen. The hive mind concept is so interesting and it suffered greatly afterwards. Just like when in Discovery they moved the interestingly widespread Control into a single body, so that it could be easily dealt with. I see it as lazy writing and not enough fantasy.

Dysfunction of a gene. Not a dysfunction as in a health problem.

At the same time, east asian people are not known for having more trouble with being overweight. But that's probably much more complicated.

Yeah, you need to find the fuel cap!

My brain kept adding "captain" to the leading scientist's name. Probably too many mtDNA insertions.

Woooosh!
