Genes are regions of nucleic acid that parents pass to offspring during reproduction as chromosomes in nuclei of gametes.
In common speech, "gene" is often used to refer to the hereditary cause of a trait, disease or condition—as in "the gene for obesity." Speaking more precisely, a biologist might refer to an allele or a mutation that has been implicated in or is associated with obesity.
The existence of genes was first suggested by Gregor Mendel, who, in the 1860s, studied inheritance in pea plants and hypothesized a factor that conveys traits from parent to offspring.

Within days of seeing the Star Trek series premiere The Man Trap on 8 September 1966, Gerrold wrote a sixty-page outline for a two-part episode called "Tomorrow Was Yesterday", about the Enterprise discovering a generation ship launched from Earth centuries earlier.
Although Star Trek producer Gene L. Coon rejected the outline, he realized Gerrold was talented and expressed interest in him submitting some story premises.
The fifth premise, "A Fuzzy Thing Happened to Me", was accepted by Coon and became "The Trouble With Tribbles".

Robert Cook: As an additional tidbit of information [about "Arena",] according to the book Inside Star Trek, the episode was not originally based on the short story, at least not consciously.
