This is fascinating to me. When I did my primary degrees we were taught
a number of biological things as inviolate processes. Almost 40 years
later doing a Masters I learnt that things had changed in the meantime,
and what was unchangeable was now fluid, but my peer professionals are 
often stuck back in the disproven teachings of last century.
