to 10 days earlier in 1994 than 1978(Rassmann, Pellissier, Defossez, Jactel, Kunstler 2014). Photoperiod that changes in time between a certain species proves that the organism is making an effort to adapt to the new seasonal changes thus causing genetic change. As a result I believe that my hypothesis was correct that organisms are adapting to the altered seasonal changes in order to…

Genetics can explain why four generations of your family became drug dependent after being exposed to drugs (Abadinsky, 2014). Family and social environmental factors are determining factors on whether a person will begin using drugs, as well (Abadinsky, 2014). According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, studies demonstrate that a person’s genetic makeup is a critical factor in being vulnerable to drug abuse (Abadinsky, 2014). Other studies demonstrate that at least half of a person’s…

“The Promise of Research with Stem Cells” by Susan Solomon “The Promise of Research with Stem Cells” by Susan Solomon is about the benefits of using stem cells for research in order to find the reasons of different types of diseases and their cure. She described how expensive drug research is and the potential loss that comes with it sometimes when it has a side effect. On the other hand, the research with stem cells will be so much better because everything will be tested on the cells before…

all children, this procedure could also make them live longer with the discarding of disease causing genes. Furthermore, the newfound experience and data collected from this procedure could also help geneticists progress faster in their research in genetics. The operation could be also viewed as ethically accepted since some women take prenatal pills during pregnancy to ensure…

any traces of moral restraint on humans in cloning, and create opportunities for more unethical uses of cloning. The designing of human embryos through eugenics would means that cloned humans would probably have to live with problematic choices of genetic makeup, or non cloned humans would not be able to reproduce. Michael Cook illustrates the clone researcher “accused of being callous and indifferent to the suffering of patients with chronic illness” (Cook). Michael Cook illustrates the lack of…

DNA Extraction A three millimeter square piece sample of unknown thawed tissue was selected using sterilized equipment. The A17 sample was placed in a steril in a 1.5mL Eppendorf tube. The cell membrane of the unknown meat was then broken down and the DNA was extracted by using the animal tissue extraction kit, Qiagen #69506. The final Eppendorf tube contained the DNA from A17 and was stored at -20 oC until gel electrophoresis. Gel Electrophoresis To determine the success of DNA extraction and…

letters which each represent a certain chemical. These chemicals include thymine, cytosine, adenine, and guanine. The four chemicals bind to each other to form chains that specify which amino acids will be needed to complete a protein (“Definition of Genetic Code”). Another source states that all living creatures share the exact same four chemicals. The sequence of the chemicals, or the genes, are what determine many…

Three medical researchers found how DNA grows and repair itself. It uses a repairing mechanism to fix any problems in a cell's DNA. The three scientists’ names are Sancar, Lyndahl, and Modrich. The scientists explained how, “Our DNA is constantly under assault from ultraviolet rays from the sun and carcinogenic substances.” Without this repairing mechanism cells would die far more quickly than they are made and the person would die. The scientists believe that they can use this information to…
