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. At the age of 14, Francis left school, started partying, and drinking with his friends and had dreams of becoming a knight. At the age of 19, he joined the military and went to battle against the nearby town of Perugia, France. Becoming a…

While it could decrease genetic disorders and prevent diseases, if scientist can manipulate DNA to create smarter,stronger, and better looking babies, it shouldn't be legal. It should not be legal because it would be a crime against self respect,also it's risky for human experimentation,and it cuts to the core of who we are as people, and it makes you ask if scientist should he dealing with that kind of control. The creation of designer babies also known as genetically modifying babies is a…

Rosalind Elsie Franklin was an English chemist, biophysicist, and X-ray crystallographer. She worked on x-ray diffraction that helped support the Watson-Crick DNA model. Franklin learned techniques about x-ray crystallography to look at carbon molecules. She published multiple articles on coals and carbons, DNA, and viruses. Rosalind’s work on carbons helped the start of developing carbon fibers and new heat-resistant materials. Franklin discovered a second type of DNA, the double stranded helix…

Rosalind Elsie Franklin was a molecular biologist whose ground-breaking work in x-ray contributed to the better understanding of DNA and eventually led to the contruction of the first model of DNA. Although there was controversy, her work greatly inspired many other female scientists to go into the practice. She took many great x-ray photographs of DNA that no one could. Ms. Franklin contributed a lot to the field of science. Rosalind’s early life was difficult since her father was…

This paper scrutinizes the many aspects of how DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) was discovered and identified through many historic figures known today. This report recognizes Rosalind Franklin, Francis Crick and James Watson for their contribution toward the scientific establishment. Also, this report states the many components of DNA structure and findings to which one is eager to assimilate. The understanding of Pyrimidines and Purines, which are the categories the nitrogenous bases fall under, is…

Rosalind Elsie Franklin was a British chemist and a X-ray crystallographer who contributed to the findings of the DNA molecular structure. She was born on July 25, 1920 in London, England. Unfortunately, she died of ovarian cancer in April 16, 1958 in London, England, at the age of 37. Synopsis: Rosalind Franklin earned a Ph.D. in physical chemistry from Cambridge University. She learned crystallography and X-ray diffraction which were techniques that she applied to DNA fibers. One of her…

The Nobel Prize exists to reward scientists who achieve in the field of physics, chemistry, medicine, and literature. It was created to make people work hard, set high goals, and discover something that will better, improve, and strengthen humanity. It rewards people to strive for excellence by thinking outside of the box. As a result, people are encouraged to improve upon their unique attributes, intelligence in this case, rather than be ashamed of their strengths. The government’s role in…

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…
