Denise Dearing focuses on how animals consuming plants can avoid the deadly toxin. Mammals synthesize biocompound to counteract toxins. She works with woodrats because there are over 20 different species and they can feed on a variety of different diets. Woodrats drag plants back to their mittens and those items serve as info for many researchers to recreate the flora of the desert. Dearing’s lab focuses on liver enzymes because it allow them to look at the mRNA while the rats are fed different diets and see which enzymes are expressed on the sequence to trigger resistance to toxins. I find it really interesting that enzymes can be synthesized in the lab, but that means the animal is limited to a more restricted diet. What Dearing wants to know more about is whether or not gut microbes help woodrats consume toxic diet. To do this, she feeds one woodrat the feces of another woodrat. She studied three species of spiny mice in the middle east. …show more content…
It is the most common cause of the common cold. The connection between viruses and rhinovirus is immunology, transmission, and urban ecology. Whether you contract the disease or not depends on how sick you are and how immune other people are. Mathematical modelling is when models predict how mechanisms or processes create interesting consequences at another level. Urban ecosystems are indeed ecosystems with a diverse modified habitats. Asthma is a reversible airway obstruction caused by chronic airway inflammation.Viruses do cause symptoms. Certain people are more likely to transmit and certain people are more likely to express
