Human culture has a constant drive for perfection in all aspects of life. People are determined to achieve the best jobs, the best homes and the best form of “living”. Even if all those things are well achieved, humans are driven to strive for more. There seems to be no point where this controlling behavior will get to a stopping point. Recently, technological advancements in medical sciences have allowed potential parents to genetically “play” with preferred traits in an unborn baby. Parents…

3 Main Points: 1. The cell contains three important things. Those three things are the nucleus, mitochondria, and the ribosomes. The nucleus consists of DNA and RNA molecules which contain hereditary information that has a jurisdiction of the cell’s purpose. The mitochondria contains mtDNA distinctive influence in human developmental research. Lastly, the ribosomes are the basic necessity to the process of protein synthesis. 2. Meiosis is a process where specialized cells split and evolve,…

Walter Glannon explores several moral problems with genetic enhancement in his article “Genetic Enhancement,” published in Glannon’s book, From Genes and Future people: Philosophical Issues in Human Genetics (and later in Bioethics Principles, Issues, and Cases.) Glannon believes that “gene therapy is permissible if it is intended to ensure or restore normal functions, but it is morally illegitimate if it is aimed at enhancing functions beyond normal.” (577) Glannon, a professor of bioethics and…

In today's society, there are numerous debates on whether a serial killers, rapists, sociopaths, and illnesses in general are due to the genes of our parents or the environment we live in. Due to recent discoveries of Epigenetics, I believe that many behaviors and genes may be influenced by the environment. Epigenetics has shown that certain environmental signs can activate or deactivate certain genes that have a large impact on personality overall. However, due to the complexion of the human…

selection is known for the causes of evolution because natural selection is the process of which the environment favor the species with favorable traits that will help them survive. Scientists believes that at some point all living beings were one single cell, but throughout years it all developed into animals and humans. In the other hand, religious people, in this case Christians, believe a Superior Being created humanity and other living…

Crick were credited for discovering the double helix structure of DNA molecule. James Watson is known to have received his degrees at the University of Chicago and his PHD at the University of India. He then met Francis Crick at the University of Cambridge where he later worked after receiving his PHD. Francis Crick during the World War II was some biophysics who held develop radar and magnetic mines then after the war he then began the structure of DNA research with James Watson at the…

surfactants: spans( esters of sorbitol with oleic acid),polysorbates(esters of sorbitol condensed no.of ethylene oxide units),poloxamers (copolymers of hydrophilic poly-oxyehylene and hydrophobic poly-oxypropylene) also called as pluronics. Figure1-Structures of synthethic surfactants…

biology is describes the transfer of genetic information within a biological system and was first stated by Francis Crick in 1956. The central dogma is the flow of genetic information as ‘’DNA makes the RNA and RNA makes the protein.’’All biological cells with few exceptions in some follow this rule. This flow takes place through three fundamental processes: replication, transcription and translation. Central Dogma theory was modified when it was found that in some cases RNA carry the genetic…

Some people are born with specific genetic makeup that allows them to build and tone muscles in an almost effortless way. Unfortunately, some of us are born the opposite. That is, we are born with a “skinny” frame. That is not our fault, and that should definitely not be a hindrance to our getting our ideal or dream bodies—one with fine muscles at the right places. If you are determined to get your ideal body, it can happen. Now, you might already be asking how to gain weight in 10 days for men.…

compare an egg to a cell. We also tested the effect of hypertonic solutions and hypotonic solutions have on cells.The purpose of this experiment was to observe what happened to a cell when placed in different environments. In order to do this, we used an egg to represent a cell and put it in different solutions such as, vinegar, corn syrup, and distilled water. Corn syrup was used to show how a cell would react in a hypertonic solution, and distilled water was used to show how a cell would react…
