In Vitro Fertilization and Cas9 By Cody Dyess ENC1102 Professor Rivers 11/20/17 Outline I) Introduction A) Gene therapy B) Thesis statement: Cas9 should be used for gene therapy in in vitro fertilization to stop genetic disorders from developing in children. II) Defining what Cas9 is III) The history of Cas9 IV) Defining in vitro fertilization and its history A) Discovery B) Implementation V) Merging Cas9 with in vitro fertilization VI) Results of Cas9 against disease VII) Cas9’s…

Christian groups want to put an end to this research saying the embryos being used are human beings that are being exploited and then dumped as medical waste. Whereas some scientist says the research will help people who are stricken with awful diseases find cures ( Embryos and Enoulment 2005) We must also ask the question of why some pregnancies come to term and others do not. If anything is physically wrong with…

Formed from differentiated cells” (Miller & Levine, p.295).Stem cells can become specialized cells such as: totipotent, pluripotent, and multipotent(Miller & Levine p. 294-295).”When a sperm and an egg cell combine to form an embryo(Stem Cell Classification)” This is totipotent. Totipotent means the cell that was just formed can be any type of human cell (Stem Cell Classification). Pluripotent is a tissue stem cell. During the 4th day of cell division, an outer layer called the…

live birth rate using assisted reproductive technologies (ART), under optimal conditions, was 75 percent after three cycles of treatment. However, this rate increased to 81 percent when transferring blastocyst embryos (transferred on day five or six) compared to 65 percent for cleavage embryos (Bowen 2000). The estimated rates of conceiving naturally are 45 percent, 65 percent and 85 percent after three, six and 12 months, respectively” (Spain 2012). Overall is this process cheating our…

Protoplasm of seed cells that include cytoplasm and nucleus is activated and that insoluble food materials are solubilized that therefore, diffused from the storage region to the embryo axis. It also develops several enzymes which are essential for growth and germination of seed (Pujari, 2014) (Miller & Levine, 2008). Temperature also plays an important role in seed germination where as low temperature may let seeds misunderstand…

diploblastic organization with mesoglea like a Cnidaria, or a solid layer of mesoderm like a Platyhelminthes. Protostome development means that an organism develops a mouth first from the blastopore and anus second. In the early stage of development, the embryos undergo spiral cleavage, which mean micromeres between micromeres. The cells that formed are determinate, which means that the blastomere fate is established during the early stages of development. Animals like Platyhelminthes,…

cells from this type requires its destruction.’’ Embryonic cell research is killing small embryo’s that could eventually become a human beings. The cells might not be able to cure illnesses that they are supposed to treat and they are destroying embryos in attempt to find solutions from the embryonic cells. It’s like destroying a bird egg just to see if you can do…

Introduction Genetic screening is a form of medical test that determines alterations in chromosomes, proteins or genes. The findings of genetic testing can reject or confirm suspected genetic condition or aid in identifying individual’s chance of passing or developing a genetic disorder. Currently, over one thousand genetic tests are in use, and more are emerging. Various methods can perform the genetic screening. For example, (1) Biochemical genetic tests which study the activity level or…

Many people believe stem cell research to be inhumane, purely due to the fact that human embryos would need to be sacrificed in order to proceed with research. While many people view the destruction of embryotic cells as murder, others believe that although there is certainly potential for life in the embryos, they are not considered human yet. With so much controversy due to morals surrounding the topic, it is impossible to tell if stem cell research…

prenatal alcohol exposure. In addition, as the infant matures, hypotonia, an increase in jitteriness, irritability and growth inhibiting factors are commonly present as well. As the child grows and starts preschool more manifestations should become apparent such as eliciting temper tantrums, or having a hard time making transitions to new environments. Hyperactivity, attention deficit, problems with fine motor abilities, along with all the previous symptoms the infant had. Around the beginning…
