3. Results Considering the morphological characteristics of the ecotypes, the cladode shape was elliptic or ovate, the number of spines varied among three classes (many, intermediate or few), the flowers had two types of petal color (scarlet or yellow), the fruit was elliptic or ovoid and the pulp color was white, pale yellow or orange (Table 2). The OFI populations studied showed statistically significant differences for DM of the fruits, F (17, 34.24) = 31.61, p < 0.05, which varied…

Past: The Golgi-Apparatus was first discovered by the Italian physician, after which it was named, Camillo Golgi in the year 1897 (but only reported the discovery in 1898), and it appeared in scientific literature for the first time in 1910, but its existence was only proved later in the year 1954 with the help of electron-microscopic studies. Camillo Golgi was able to identify this organelle by using a special staining technique, which he called ‘Black Reaction’, which made it possible to…

This is what forms traits such as hair or eye color; genes from parents are mixed, and depending on the dominant/recessive alleles, the offspring could inherit one of the parents traits. Genetic diversity is caused by the crossing over of chromosomes during Prophase I, the random assignment of chromosomes…

3.3 Results and Discussion 3.3.1 Agarose Particles By microscopy observation, both ABT and CSS were activated by the Mix&GoTM solution with significant colour change on the particle surface. Seen from Figure 3-1 and 3-2, a dark green layer was formed outside the particle after treating with Mix&GoTM. By visual observation, the agarose particles turned from colourless to green, which supported the microscopy observation. The activated particles were also sent for zeta potential measurement and…

In the article “Ethics and the New Genetics” written by The Dalai Lama, the author explains a religious symbol that is trying to send a message to the science community. A genetic technology that one day will change the definition of what it is to be human. Similarly, in “Human Dignity” written by Francis Fukuyama the author examines Factor X, the same number of factors that makes a human being human. Individuals should be political, the ethical esteem is embodied, the decisions made, and the…

When considering the argument of Bioethics, the ethical standards of determining if a scientific process is morally legitimate opens innocent minds across the world. Bioethics has been integrated throughout today’s society and quickly advanced into an embroiled storm that is sweeping nations across a broad spectrum. When examining the importance of these controversial issues, the development of new scientific advancements is incorporated into the field of Eugenics. Eugenics can be considered a…

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…

Not to our surprise, the ICS results of Chiang Mai case are different from other 3 cases in several aspects. We will try to elaborate and discuss about those different accordingly in each section. Figure 5.1 shows the distribution of the ICS samplings according to their country of origin as follow, among 100 respondents, the majority is from Myanmar (34%) following by Japan (14%), USA (10%) and Lao (10%). 10 people are from Cambodia, 8 people are from China a, 7% of the respondents are from…

1. What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis? Define each term, and then explain how each process contributes differently to the conception and growth of a zygote. The two ways cell division can occur are through mitosis and meiosis. In mitosis, a cell produces two clones of itself, each with the same number of chromosomes. In meiosis, a cell will produce four cells called gametes through the process of spermatogenesis and oogenesis. Gametes are most commonly known as sperm cells in…
