“All the food we eat - every grain of rice and kernel of corn - has been genetically modified. None of it was here before mankind learned to cultivate crops. The question isn't whether our food has been modified, but how.” This is a quote by a famous journalist by the name of Michael Specter. Mr. Specter, along with many other respected members of the scientific community, has formed an opinion of Genetic modification. Genetic Modification has been done for thousands of years but most people…

of inspiration for Halloween, carnival or any other themed party. The Wednesday Addams costume is a perfect choice for teens who want to show their dark side and. First, you need to opt for a black dress or a long t-shirt with long sleeves. Choose a pair of black shoes and black and white stockings. Other than her iconic black dress, don't forget about her signature pigtails. If you have long hair, you should begin by doing a braid on each side of the head; if you have short hair, opt for a…

producing duplicates of each gene, which are then coloured with fluorescent dyes in order to distinguish the nucleotide bases in the DNA. A DNA sequencer is then used in order to graph and print out the entire sequence of nucleotide base sequences from both organisms, which is then compared. The results prove that the more closely related species, the less differences in nucleotide base sequences. Mitochondrial DNA It is common for DNA to be located in the mitochondria of a cell.…

information from a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule everything must work together. Griffiths et all. (2002) says that two strands of the double helix of DNA separate and one acts as a temple. They also stated that A pairs with T while and G with C in DNA. However, in RNA A pairs with U and G with C. Since RNA Polymerase (RNAPs) can be found in archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotes there are many different ways to look at what is happening. According to Jun et all. (2012) “The…

eukaryotic DNA polymerase requires a short RNA primer to begin replication on the lagging strand, because of this replication cannot continue replication all the way to the end of the chromosome, and it has been shown that anywhere between 50 and 150 base pairs are lost from the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes for each round of DNA replication (Kim, et al. 2016). This is problematic, because…

The main goal of this study was to identify and analyze the D1S80 gene, and this experiment illustrated the versatility of these molecular biology techniques of PCR and gel electrophoresis to serve as methods identifying individuals. Both of the hypotheses made in this experiment that (1) there were genetic variation with the six students and (2) Student 3’s genotype was heterozygous were supported by the data. As seen in Figures 1 and 2 and Table 1 with different agarose gel percentages, it can…

Introduction In the United States a suspect in a crime is innocent until they are proven in court of law to be guilty beyond doubt(Cornell web), for now at least. This need to prove guilt in a suspect means the use of DNA to determine if the suspect was at least present at the crime scene is a powerful tool because no one person can change their DNA at will. The use of DNA as way to identify people has it 's origins in the United Kingdom because of a technique created by Dr. Alex Jeffreys used…

Tampa Bay Rays. It was Roberto Perez who slid securely into the home base as their opponent’s catcher Curt Casali dropped the ball in the 9th inning of the June 21 game. Everyone thought that Indians were already beaten, but when Perez stoop up from his slid, he noticed that the baseball was out of Casali’s hands. Finally, the Indians capture their first walk-off victory of this season. At last, the team got through with the bases filled. David Murphy did a sacrifice fly to break a scoreless…

Paracetamol is one of the world’s most beneficial and resourceful analgesic and is widely used in present day. An analgesic, can be defined, as a chemical compound that relieves pain, reduces fever and inflammation. It works by hindering the enzyme cyclooxygenase which acts a catalyst to convert fatty acids to prostaglandins. Prostaglandins cause pain and inflammation to peripheral and central points in the nervous system2. Paracetamol, or Acetaminophen is created by the synthesis and…
