Francis Ellis

There are not many people like Rosalinda Elsie Franklin because she was born in London, England, July 25, 1920 and died in London, England, on April, 16, 1958 Rosalinda Franklin was a Pioneer Molecular Biologist there was no other women scientist with as much controversy she had surrounded her life with work that’s all she wanted to do was work. There was a story about DNA is a tale of competition and intrigue. She had worked so hard to be a scientist from the time she was 15l she all ways…

but the question is who is the real discover? The Double Helix was discovered by Rosalind Franklin, but she didn't understand its importance and true meaning, so all the credit goes to James Watson and Francis Crick. The Double Helix was founded by Rosalind Franklin. In the article The Francis Crick Papers: The Discovery of the Double Helix, 1951-1953 it states that, “Her evidence demonstrated that the two sugar-phosphate backbones lay on the outside of the molecule, confirmed Watson and…

The name of the saint that I choose to be confirmed by is Saint Clare of Assisi and her original name was Chiara Offreduccio. She was born in the country of Assisi Italy on the day of July, 16 1194 but unfortunately, she died on the day of August, 11 1253. Ortolana and Favorino Sciffi were the parents of saint Clare and her sister Saint Agnes of Assisi. Her parents were both rich and Clare was an intelligent little girl and was also coached to be smart in the subjects reading and writing. During…

genetic material because it was not seen as complex due to the fact not much was known about it yet, so many presumed proteins were the genetic material of life. It was not until scholars such as Frederick Griffith, Meselson-Stahl, James Watson, Francis Crick, Maurice Wilkins, Rosalind Franklin, Avery, McCarty, Erwin Chargaff and many more conducted experiments that would expose astonishing discovering that will lead to the understanding of DNA also known as the Race for DNA. It began with…

St Francis is one of the most beloved saints of all time. St. Francis was born in 1181 in Assisi, Italy. He was the son of a wealthy cloth merchant, Peter Bernadone. Francis grew up leading a privileged life with the finer things that money could buy.

The majority of individuals are familiar with the mundane task of choosing the ingredients on a Subway sandwich, numerous people have experienced the complex decision of electing the specifications for a computer, few have even encountered the remarkable undertaking of selecting a sperm donor, but what about ordering, through a catalog, the specific genes, abilities, and cosmetic characteristics for a child-to-be? Although the technology for human genetic engineering and cloning has yet to be…

Since the existence of mankind, people tried to purify humans to create the perfect race. It was a popular movement and gained great popularity during the 20th century but later died down. Animals were bred to benefit specific human needs. A German Shepard, for example, to help shepherds herd their cattle. Also livestock and crops are modified to benefit farmers by generating more profit. With modern technological advancements, people are able to change the gene structure of animals and plants…

At this moment, pollutants are being put in the air and harming the earth. Animals that are used for their manure emits ten percent of the world’s methane into the air ("Methane Emissions"). This is very harmful to the earth and its inhabitants. However, the amount of this dangerous gas from manure can be reduced by genetic engineering. A study shows that feeding genetically modified maize to pregnant cows reduces the amount of methane their offspring releases…

by extracting certain letters from a well-known line from Hamlet, "The funeral baked meats did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables," it creates with the anagram "FR. BACONI NATI," which according to his unconventional form of Latin means that Francis Bacon wrote the plays. Platt 's phrase, translated into conventional Latin, would actually mean "Of the birth of Fr. Bacon." (Wheeler). The last candidate is Christopher Marlowe. According to this theory, “There are more than a hundred…

With the new scientific advances and breakthroughs, germline engineering may be just around the corner. Human kind will essentially be granted the ability to choose the sex, traits and genetic makeup of the next generation. Many useful ideas have been sparked up by this upcoming technology including the chance to obliterate diseases from our genes. In my family two different types of cancers have been known to develop. It is probable that the cancers are hereditary. If given the option, I…
