Often times in life, we tend to take things for granted on a day to day basis. Things that help us so often that we fail to be thankful for. Some of these things are more important than others and they should be. Knowing that we have to breathe to stay alive is probably the easiest example of something we do automatically without even thinking about it. Or for the purposes of this class, we think about the senses we have and the impact of how much different our lives would be if we did not have…

Animal Rights The first genetically modified animal was AquAdvantage salmon in 2015 was permitted for food use. Genetic modification of animals involves mutation, insertion, and deletion of genes. The purpose of this paper is to examine that is it moral and permissible to genetically modify animals for greater food production? It will also examine how genetic modification crosses species boundaries. The genetic engineering of animals has increased at an alarming rate in the past few…

Introduction The field of telomere biology has been an active area of research in recent time, especially so following the work by Hayflick and Olovnikov. Expanding on his, Elizabeth Blackburn and Joseph Gall noticed that the end of the chromosomes from Tetrahymena thermophila contained the six base sequence TTGGGG iterated many times (Blackburn and Gall, 1978). Over the decades, literature has arisen that has revealed many things regarding telomeres. However, as with the case with many…

The Role of Neurophysiology in the Treatment of Rett Syndrome Rett syndrome, named after Dr. Andreas Rett (Briggs,2014) who first identified the condition, is a severe neurodevelopment disorder characterized by compromised brain functions, severe mental retardation, language and learning disabilities, repetitive stereotyped hand movements, and developmental regression (Liyanage & Rastegar, 2014). The high prevalence of Rett syndrome in small children and the associated developmental regression…

Prompt 1 One of the greatest and most renowned biologists of all time, Charles Darwin, wrote a fantastic novel The Origin of Species. The Origin of Species begins with an extraordinary image of existence as coexistence. Darwin describes this through the process of how multiple beings rely on each other for survival. Morton describes this as, “Water and air are like hair and feathers. Living and nonliving beings become the medium in which other beings exist.” (Morton 61) He also goes on to say,…

Recombinant DNA is genetically engineered DNA that is formed by splicing fragments of DNA. Organismal cloning is the artificial creation of a new organism that is genetically identical to its counterpart. DNA cloning is a recombinant DNA technique where cDNAs and fragments of genomic DNA are inserted into a cloning vector and maintained during growth of the host cells. Vector is an agent that transfers genetic material into a cell or organism. Restriction enzymes are bacterial enzymes that find…

I. INTRODUCTION Summary. T cells are one of the several types of lymphocytes that performs several functions in immunity. An example function is immune surveillance, a process in which foreign and diseased host cells are recognized and destroyed by natural killer cells. T cells function in immune surveillance by generating a T-cell response (TCR) which allow them to function in fighting against infection (Swann, J. B. et al, 2007). Recent findings indicate TCR and local non-related factors of…

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 TUBERCULOSIS Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB is a major global health problem and it ranks alongside Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) as a leading cause of death worldwide. According to the estimates of WHO global tuberculosis report of 2015, there were 9.6 million people who developed TB and 1.5 million who died from the disease in 2014. 1.2 TRANSMISSION AND PATHOGENESIS OF TB TB infection occurs when…

Alvin was a very thoughtful young man who loved face to face communication. He would always say “Hello” to everyone that he sees. One day, mowing his lawn, he had saw his friend, Lucy, and she had a very shiny gadget. Alvin walked up to her and said, “Hey Lucy, what you got there?” She said, “Oh, Alvin, this is a cell phone, a greatest innovation that America has created. On this device, people can talk, text, email, and browse, etc. This little thing will change the face of communication.”…
