“a vast variety of organic substances are made, including sugars and apparently some of the materials from which proteins are build up”(Haldane, 1929). When the first living cell is synthetized, it will reproduce and create more cells. This hypothesis describe the procedure for chemicals on early earth to synthetize living cell hence challenge assumption made by theists that live must be reproduced by other living…

and not glowing under UV light. It ended up growing because the LB that was in the plate with it helped the bacteria grow and reproduce. The bacteria became resistant to the ampicillin because the DNA plasmid contained beta lactamase which made the cell resistant to ampicillin. It did not end up glowing under UV light because the gene for the green fluorescent protein was repressed by the araC gene found on the DNA plasmid. The hypothesis about the +pGLO plate containing LB, ampicillin, and…

Genetic engineering used to be the thing the scientists experimented on plants and animals but now humans. I dont think its right to change the way people live life just to either look a little better or be a little smarter. It's okay in some situations, for instance when someone has really bad pain and it is never ending. We need something to fix it that is not pain killers. Instead we should just have surgery and never feel that amount of pain again but just enough pain to the point where we…

Mary Shelley, in her Science Fiction novel Frankenstein introduces her ideas of technological advancement as a problem between the characters. These problems are considered to be monstrous; however, the modern world would not be where we are today without the advancement of our technology. New discoveries of technology originated in the emergence of the Nineteenth Century and influenced the writing of Frankenstein. Some of these inventions including the discovery of electricity and advancements…

Microbes - bacteria, archaea, fungi, algae, protozoa and viruses - have been around for at least 3,500 million years and were the only life forms on Earth for most of that time. Microbiology is the study of these small organisms. A microorganism or microbe is an organism that is microscopic. The development of the microscope, along with the observations of various scientists, led to the discovery of microorganisms. It is thanks to Van Leeuwenhoek who is largely credited with the discovery of…

250,000pg/µl = 250µg/ml 1mg/ml = 1000µg/ml ● 150,00µg/ml - HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF DNA ● 1000µg/ml ● 250µg/ml ● 0.2µg/ml - LOWEST CONCENTRATION OF DNA 4. Sodium dodecyl sulphate is used as a detergent, which allows the cells to release DNA by disrupting the cell and nuclear membranes. It dissolves the proteins and lipids that hold the membranes together. 5. The isolated DNA can be used to diagnose genetic disorders, investigate forensic evidence…

Based on Mendel’s experimental observation and conclusion on pea plants, he proposed four postulates including one that each phenotypical characteristic are controlled by a pair of unit factors also known as alleles that separate independently in gametes. Although Mendel’s contribution to genetics isn’t wrong, there are some exceptions of inheritances that do not follow Mendel’s principles. Non-mendelian inheritance traits include maternal effects, epigenetics, and extranuclear genes. What makes…

into a human and some people do not agree with this. Process and Biological Concepts There are 2 main types of xenotransplantation that can occur: Solid organ and Cell and Tissue transplantation. Solid organ as the name suggests is when an animal organ e.g. kidney or heart is transplanted into the human body. Cell and Tissue is when cells and tissues are…

Information is Useful: This lab is an example of how cell transport works. The gummy bear is a cell in this case which is placed in a hypotonic solution that is the lime juice. Hyp0tonic solution is a greater concentration of the solute molecules inside the cell than outside. The gummy bear has an outer layer, cell membrane, and a jelly substance in the middle, cytoplasm, which relates to a cell. Seeing how the gummy bear reacts would be similar to how a cell reacts to another substance.…

Gregor Mendel was the first person to make connections between parents and children by using math symbols. He made the set of laws which are now known as the three laws of inheritance. This set of laws consists of the Law of Dominance, the Law of Segregation, and the Law of Independent Assortment. To begin, the first law of inheritance is the Law of Dominance. This law states that genes come in pairs and are inherited in different units called alleles. In a situation with one dominant allele and…
