The fruit flies does deal with dominant vs. recessive for the wing traits. Complete dominance occurs when the dominant allele complete cover (hide) the recessive allele. This occurs to the wing traits in the fruit flies. Normal wings are dominant over vestigial wing and base on the data, the female that carries the vestigial wing did not create any F1 generation of vestigial traits. This occurs because the male has normal wing so when the two parent meet; the dominant normal wing in the male…

TNF was formerly called cachectin and later termed TNF- a. A protein related to TNF originally termed "lymphotoxin" was also discovered which known as TNF-β. TNF-a is synthesized as a prohormone and then processed intracellularly through successive steps of proteolytic cleavage by enzyme called TNF-a converting enzyme (TACE) to its mature form. ( Joost and Francis, 2001) TNF was formerly called cachectin and later termed TNF- a. A protein related to TNF originally termed "lymphotoxin" was also…

Imagine having glowing parts at night in your body. Having the ability to glow in the dark would be fun. There are many things in the world that glow in the dark. For example, glow sticks, lightning, fireworks, mushrooms, bacteria, algae and many more. The Aequorea Victoria Jellyfish is a jelly that glows in the dark. I am more than interested to learn how luminescence works and its processes. The Aequorea Victoria Jellyfish is a jellyfish found in the Puget Sound, Washington State. The…

named due the mistaken belief that germ cells arise from this surface layer. Instead germ cells are more likely to arise from the gonadal tissue itself (2). Spindle shaped cells called the ovarian stroma constitutes the major cell type ubiquitous throughout the body of the ovary. In the periphery,…

Abstract Tafazzin, encoded by the TAZ gene, is a mitochondrial membrane-associated protein that remodels cardiolipin (CL), an important mitochondrial phospholipid. CL is essential for proper mitochondrial structure and function, ensuring proper functioning of energy production and apoptosis. TAZ mutations are associated with the X-linked metabolic disorder, Barth syndrome (BTHS). BTHS is a lipid metabolic disorder that affects mitochondria that is often fatal in infancy and early childhood, due…

basale or stratum germinativum is a continuous layer which gives rise to keratinocytes. It is usually described as one cell thick .this is the base or bottom made of living cuboidal keratinocytes that undergo cell division (mitosis ) they also have melanocytes that make melanin( dark pigment ). 2. Stratum Spinosum: the stratum spinosum or prickle cell layer is so called because the cells are given a spiny appearance by the numerous desmosomes or attachment plaques at their surfaces. These are…

Highlands Ranch, CO, June 22, 2012 Dr. Chad Prusmack, through his nutraceutical company PruTectRx, has been authorized by T.A. Sciences to prescribe the telomerase activator, TA-65. Popularized by Suzanne Somers in her book, Bombshell: Explosive Medical Secrets that Will Redefine Aging, TA-65 has been shown to lengthen telomeres in DNA strands, which can help slow aging, hinder the development of cancer and decrease genomic instability. TA-65 is only available through authorized,…

The first incident of a “designer baby” occurred in the mid-1990s. It was facilitated by a man, Jacques Cohen, who believed he had discovered a way for infertile women to become pregnant. In order to achieve this, Jacques used DNA from the mother, a father, and also a third party DNA donor for “cytoplasmic transfer.” It was later found out that this “cytoplasmic transfer” actually gave the children extra mitochondrial DNA. Thus, the first “genetically enhanced” baby was born. The Genetic…

article, “US Panel Greenlights Creation of Male ‘Three-Person’ Embryos,” written by Sara Reardon, in order to learn more about this new technology. The SciShow video that I watched defined mitochondrial DNA as a set of genetic instructions within our cells. It is made up of 37 genes that are inherited only from our mother’s DNA, and as with the human genome, genetic mutations within the mitochondrial DNA are possible. A mother can easily pass any mitochondrial DNA mutations to her offspring.…

Having freckles is a common and harmless condition that is shared among many people around the world. Freckles are passed down genetically, and are a dominant trait. They are most common and most easily seen on fair skinned people. Many people with freckles notice that their freckles become darker after being out in the sun. This is because freckles are basically clumps of melanocytes, and the sun's ultraviolet rays cause melanocytes to create more melanin, making the freckles darker. Now,…
