Discuss the similarities and differences in DNA replication between eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Are the changes in eukaryotes adaptations? Explain. Introduction Before we start our discussion, let us refresh our memories; cells are the absolute smallest building blocks of life, each manifesting a sophisticated design. Broadly speaking, the cells are divided in eukaryotes that contain membrane-bound organelles; and prokaryotes that do not (Diffen, 2007)—in short, prokaryotes are both simpler and…

Book banning is an action that takes place worldwide instead of just in the United States. There are many reasons books are banned such as witchcraft, homosexuality, racism, and language. “A Day No Pigs Would Die”, by Robert Newton Peck banned because of cruelty to animals, violence, and graphic sexuality. Banned Book Week is the celebration of being able to have the freedom to read (Crum, 1). It is the ALA’s way of responding to the censorship of books (Monges, 1). Groups such as schools,…

Eddie S. Glaude, writer of “The Real ‘Special Snowflakes’ on Campus Free-Speech Debates”, tackles a well-argued question asked by liberals and conservatives. Do students who are attending college universities have the right to protest on campus? Right off the bat, Glaude categorizes conservatives as those who are against freedom of speech. This is the first small yet obvious piece of bias- bagging on conservatives. By placing them in this category, students now look at all conservatives as…

Reflection Paper #1 The text that was most impactful for me was Kellie Bancalari’s “Free speech on campus? Not for adjunct faculty, it seems,” on USA Today. Bancalari’s article talks about free speech on campus and how the one group that has to be the most careful about what they say is adjunct professors. Adjunct professors are professors that work part-time and do not have tenure nor are they on track for tenure. She wrote that if adjunct professors say anything controversial or “incendiary”…

Objectives: In the present study we made an attempt to evaluate the association of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1(PAI-1)4G/5G polymorphism with oxidative stress markers Malondialdehyde (MDA) and High sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), fibrinolysis marker PAI-1and lipid profiles. Subject and Methods: Blood was drawn and DNA extracted from 90 subjects (46 cases and 44 controls). The 4G/5G polymorphism of PAI-1 was amplified using specific primers. Amplified products were visualized by…

A case on cancer cell By Shamik D. Majumdar What does cancer cell mean? Normal cells can repair themselves if any part gets damaged . This process is known as DNA repair. If the damage is too bad, they will self slaughter- known as apoptosis. (1) The molecules in cancer cells decide whether a cell should repair itself or not .EX: “a protein called p53 normally checks to see if the genes can be repaired or whether the cell should die”, so basically it…

Genes are the basic physical and functional unit of heredity, and make up DNA, acting as instructions for the production of proteins in the organism of every living thing. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is condensed and packaged around histones, which order it into units known as nucleosomes. The epigenome is made up of chemical compounds and proteins that can attach to DNA and switch certain genes on or off, controlling the functions and roles of different cells. Epigenetics, which involves…

The free radical theory hypothesis, initially proposed in the mid-1950s, has developed into a noteworthy aging hypothesis. Free radicals are exceptionally flimsy and receptive particles that can be created by ordinary digestion system, responses to illumination, chain responses with other free radicals, and oxidation of certain natural poisons, for example, ozone, pesticides, and air contaminations. Free radicals and their conjugated mixes are fit for assaulting different atoms since they have…

Banning books do not help anyone, banning a book in a library makes it more difficult for other people to read the book if they can not afford to by the book.The definition of a banned book is a work that contains material that has been deemed inappropriate, offensive, or dangerous by certain people or organizations. The people that challenge the books are usually parents of school children (Shumaker). Furthermore, it is really easy to ban a book, all that a person would have to do is…

Survival Time: Table 1 showsthe effect of different extracts of Punica grantum L and Ziziphus mauritiana on mean survival time and % ILS against EAC. In the EAC control group, the mean survival time was 14 days and it increased significantly to 23 and 21 days with ethanol extract of combination ofZiziphus mauritiana andPunica grantum L ZP (E) and ethanol extract Punica grantum L P(E) of treated groups respectively. The mean survival time in 5-Flurouracil treated mice found to be 26 days ( r <…
