understand and observe cells. Let us begin with the ABC’s of the Cell Theory which splits into 3 major parts: All living beings are made up of cells Cells are the basic unit of structure in all organisms All cells come from preexisting cells. To have a deeper understanding of the statements above, which is, in fact, the simplified version of this vast topic, let’s refer to the Venn diagram below: It shows that in biology, not all living organisms are composed of the same cell.…

Although these two cells share a lot of similarities there are also many differences between the common prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, however more specifically I will be exploring how the structure relates to the function of an animal cell and a non-photosynthetic prokaryotic cell, and it is explained that, “analysing a biological structure gives us clues about what it does and how it works” (Campbell et al: 2014, p.52). The structure and the function of a cell generally aren’t one without…

First, I would like to say that the topic I chose is very interesting and in fact I really like this topic. Before choosing my topic I had rough idea about what CRISPR was and how it was being used in recent times to engineer everything around us by small steps. Before my research findings I had an idea what CRISPR was such as how it was being used around the world on modifying genes, and engineering new species by deleting or replacing the genes that were unwanted by that organism. What I knew…

MICROBIAL CONTROLLING PERFORMANCE MINERAL a. Raw Material: What are the raw materials that make up the material? How are the raw materials extracted? Oshenite is produced from a renewable marine mineral called “oolitic aragonite”, a form of calcium carbonate sustainably harvested from sea beds in the Bahamas, 65 miles off the Florida coast. “Oolitic aragonite” is from microscopic bio matter such as plankton and algae. It is sourced from a region of the Bahamas basin, 65 miles off the Florida…

possible. The people working in these findings are international researchers working with Professor Karl Forchhammer and Alexander Klotz at University of Tübingen 's Interfaculty Institute of Microbiology and Infection Medicine. It is stated that the cells stop photosynthesis and begin to reserve their energy. In addition, it is stated that protein-synthesizing mechanisms take in nitrogen and after 48 hours, begin to grow and divide. In addition, it is stated in the article that being able to…

such devastating syndromes that are otherwise unpreventable, outweighs the loss of the other embryos. In a perfect world, embryos would not have to be sacrificed, but luckily, at the point when their genes are tested, they are only a conglomerate of cells, a zygote, with no resemblance to even the beginnings of a human being. So, when it comes to disease prevention and eradication, genetic modification should be pursued. However, many individuals believe that through using genetic engineering,…

into protoplasm which follows digestion and absorption within animals. Metabolism consists of the chemical reactions that sustain a living state of your cells and organism in your body. Metabolism is the source of energy and balance in your body. (Central, C. 2017).Metabolism is all chemical reactions involved in preserving the living state of the cells and the organism. It is linked closely to nutrition and the availability of nutrients. The formation of energy is one of the vibrant components…

In the chapter titled, “Immortality,” Matt Ridley discusses the idea of the immortal cell theory. He presents some case studies as well as his own speculations. To began, he explains how the origin of the first cell is still alive in us today and although this is true it does not mean our species will live forever. The function of our life and all life is to reproduce but to get to that we have over came many challenges. On Chromosome 14, the presence of the TEP1 gene seems to be the source of…

to regulate intelligence. We could just clone Einstein. In 1990, seven years before Dolly; the first successful act of somatic HE took place. A four-year-old girl with a rare genetic condition called ADA deficiency had a gene added to some of the cells in her body to correct a problem with a malfunctioning gene. In reference to Evans, while at least one participant in a clinical trial has died from somatic HGE; there is more proof that somatic engineering has benefited patients. This proof…

To accurately understand the effects of GMO’s on the environment, it is important to first understand what a GMO is and how it changes the identity of the organism. A GMO is a genetically modified organism, this means that the genes of one specific organism are extracted and implanted into a new organism, or that the DNA has been altered and modified (live science). According to conventional breeding, we know that the parents of the individual both give half of the genetic material within the…
