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…

Locomotion is the movement of a body from one place to another. There are various ways in which species of organisms in the 9 major phylum classes of the kingdom Animalia adapted unique muscle systems and how they use them. A phylum class includes organisms that are different but share important characteristics that resulted from evolutionary relationships among major groups of animals that allowed organisms to adapt in terms of the way they locomote. The Phylum Porifera is made up of sea…

History of Cloning Cloning has been present in our world. Cloning is the only avenue of reproduction in the novel Brave New World. The scientists in Brave New World are able mass fertilize, mass produce, and mature eggs in an extreme short amount of time, by Bokanovsky’s process (Huxley 6). Bokanovsky’s process is fictional, but in the real world we have been able to clone. The first idea of cloning was in 1938 by Hans Spemann, called “fantastic experiment” (The Embryo Project Encyclopedia). He…

Advantages: • GM crops are resistant to pests which mean that a gene is transferred to the plant which makes it resistant to pests and kills the pests instead. This will result in the growth of a larger crop, increased yield and also a financial gain as less pesticide is being used. May improve farmer or farm workers…

The human genome is composed of millions of molecules of DNA perfectly packaged into 23 chromosomes. Each human is the result of a combination of the same four nucleotides, yet every single one is unique. Perhaps, this is due to the slight variation in each human’s DNA, or maybe the explanation lies in a person’s upbringing. The purpose of studying human development is to understand why people change by applying the scientific method to existing theories, which provide the basis for…

ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF CUCKOO ALGORITHM Cuckoo search (CS) is an optimization algorithm developed by Xin-she Yang and Suash Deb in 2009. It was inspired by the obligate brood parasitism of some cuckoo species by laying their eggs in the nests of other host birds (of other species). Some host birds can engage direct conflict with the intruding cuckoos. For example, if a host bird discovers the eggs are not their own, it will either throw these alien eggs away or simply abandon its nest and build…

It is within human nature to strive for perfection. To be the best we can be, and now humans are on the brink of discovering how to finally reach this “perfection” we desire through genetically modifying fetuses or in other words creating a designer baby. However, should we really turn to designer babies in our search for perfection? In my opinion I do not believe we should because there are so many unforeseen consequences of designer babies that we cannot comprehend. We may come across bacteria…

B) Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) Active components of the plant are believed to be polyphenols, including flavonoids, A-type proanthocyanidins, anthocyanins, coumarins, and phenolic acids, forming unique and diversified profiles in particular organs, among which the flowers are the least (Owczarek et al., 2017). This work is the first comprehensive phytochemical and activity study of the flower extracts of P. spinosa. (Phenolic compounds of blackthorn (Prunus spinosa L.) and influence of in…
