Saint Francis House

St. Francis de Sales was born near Annecy in Savoy, in 1567. He was the eldest of 12 children. He died in 1622 with the word “Jesus” on his lips. He was canonized in 1665. St. Francis de Sales is the patron saint of writers and journalists. Francis was a very smart man because Francis’s parents wanted him to become a lawyer and enter politics. At age 12 Francis went to college de clermont in paris. He also went to study philosophy and theology. Francis did not want to become a lawyer but wanted…

In today's society we are continuously advancing in our technology. Genetic engineering is the fastests way towards evolution for mankind. The movie Gattaca by Andrew Niccol gives us an example on how genetic engineering is used more commonly in the future. Now with the technology, we are given the opportunity to control our babies genetic and physical attributes. Genetic engineering is also creating a major concern on what we should or should not do while modifying our genes. I believe that…

When it comes to the topic of genetic modification, there is a debate whether or not it should be allowed. Where this agreement usually ends, however, is on whether or not science should be able to improve human life. Whereas some are convinced that genetic modification can help cure diseases, others maintain that it should not be used to enhance a child’s abilities. My own view, however is that genetic modification should be allowed whether it is used to modify or enhance a human life. Whether…

There are not many people like Rosalinda Elsie Franklin because she was born in London, England, July 25, 1920 and died in London, England, on April, 16, 1958 Rosalinda Franklin was a Pioneer Molecular Biologist there was no other women scientist with as much controversy she had surrounded her life with work that’s all she wanted to do was work. There was a story about DNA is a tale of competition and intrigue. She had worked so hard to be a scientist from the time she was 15l she all ways…

but the question is who is the real discover? The Double Helix was discovered by Rosalind Franklin, but she didn't understand its importance and true meaning, so all the credit goes to James Watson and Francis Crick. The Double Helix was founded by Rosalind Franklin. In the article The Francis Crick Papers: The Discovery of the Double Helix, 1951-1953 it states that, “Her evidence demonstrated that the two sugar-phosphate backbones lay on the outside of the molecule, confirmed Watson and…

The name of the saint that I choose to be confirmed by is Saint Clare of Assisi and her original name was Chiara Offreduccio. She was born in the country of Assisi Italy on the day of July, 16 1194 but unfortunately, she died on the day of August, 11 1253. Ortolana and Favorino Sciffi were the parents of saint Clare and her sister Saint Agnes of Assisi. Her parents were both rich and Clare was an intelligent little girl and was also coached to be smart in the subjects reading and writing. During…

genetic material because it was not seen as complex due to the fact not much was known about it yet, so many presumed proteins were the genetic material of life. It was not until scholars such as Frederick Griffith, Meselson-Stahl, James Watson, Francis Crick, Maurice Wilkins, Rosalind Franklin, Avery, McCarty, Erwin Chargaff and many more conducted experiments that would expose astonishing discovering that will lead to the understanding of DNA also known as the Race for DNA. It began with…

While it could decrease genetic disorders and prevent diseases, if scientist can manipulate DNA to create smarter,stronger, and better looking babies, it shouldn't be legal. It should not be legal because it would be a crime against self respect,also it's risky for human experimentation,and it cuts to the core of who we are as people, and it makes you ask if scientist should he dealing with that kind of control. The creation of designer babies also known as genetically modifying babies is a…

Rosalind Elsie Franklin was an English chemist, biophysicist, and X-ray crystallographer. She worked on x-ray diffraction that helped support the Watson-Crick DNA model. Franklin learned techniques about x-ray crystallography to look at carbon molecules. She published multiple articles on coals and carbons, DNA, and viruses. Rosalind’s work on carbons helped the start of developing carbon fibers and new heat-resistant materials. Franklin discovered a second type of DNA, the double stranded helix…

Rosalind Elsie Franklin was a molecular biologist whose ground-breaking work in x-ray contributed to the better understanding of DNA and eventually led to the contruction of the first model of DNA. Although there was controversy, her work greatly inspired many other female scientists to go into the practice. She took many great x-ray photographs of DNA that no one could. Ms. Franklin contributed a lot to the field of science. Rosalind’s early life was difficult since her father was…
