the century. As our Nation was adjusting to the
new technological advances they were making during
the Industrial Revolution, it seems that some

race." There were many problems that accompanied
the new century, perhaps one of the largest

The Greek Economy Agriculture The Greek economy
depends a lot on agriculture. One quarter of the
Greek workforce is engaged in farming, and
agriculture constitutes about 15 % of the domestic
production. Not much attention has been drawn on
the agricultural sector of the economy. The farms
are pretty small, the division of inheriting land
has reduced the average size to 3, 4 hectares (8
acres) and it is really difficult to use mechanism
equipment efficiently. Yields are also low due to

Mentally Retarded Mental Retardation
639 words
Fragile X Syndrome is an inherited genetic
condition associated with mental retardation. It
is caused by a mutation of the X chromosome.
Fathers cannot pass the disease onto their sons,
because females always give an x chromosome where
a man gives either an x or a y. If a man gives a y
chromosome, then the result is a boy baby, and
since the disease is only carried in the x
chromosome, a boy can only inherit this disease
from his mother. A girl, on the other hand, can
inherit the disease from ei...
