    Background: During vertebrate development, neurons differentiate before glial cells. Common progenitor model and heterogeneous progenitor model were proposed to explain this differential paradox. This paper aims to resolve the uncertain lineage relationship between the two differentiated cells and identify the basis for the fate of speciation. Hypothesis 1: pMN progenitor fate is biased by the position of the cell within the pMN domain. Experimental Approach: Transgenic…

    at fertilization, where a female egg cell and a male sperm cell meet. This result in a single cell called a zygote. The female and male both pass on their DNA to this zygote, where it contains half of the DNA from both the mother and the father. Mitosis commences where then the zygote will begin to divide and produce a multicellular organism called and embryo. Embryonic Stem Cells are derived from the embryo and are the in vitro descendants of the pluripotent inner mass, often times what is…

    as Down syndrome. This occurs when each cell has three copies of chromosome twenty-one rather than having a normal pair. Nondisjunction is "an error in which homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids fail to separate normally during meiosis or mitosis" (Huether, McCancep, 2012, p.42). Therefore, a common cause of Down syndrome is nondisjunction. Scientists have made the discovery that Down syndrome is caused by an extra chromosome, but the cause of why that occurs is unknown. The main risk…

    First, they are unspecialized( or infant cells) cells capable of renewing themselves through cell division like mitosis. Second, under certain conditions, they can be forced to be made into a tissue or organ specific cells with special functions. In some organs, stem cells regularly divide to repair and replace worn out or damaged tissues. For example, when you get…

    28. a) A structure that was made if two chains of nucleotides, each in a helix, with each chain running parallel to each other. Also proved that the nucleotide bases could pair up in only one way based on Chargaff’s rule. b) Franklin’s x-ray diffraction photographs showed that the wet form of DNA likely had a double helix. Wilkins showed Watson Franklin’s results and at the time Watson and Crick were experimenting with many potential models of having 1,2 or even 2 strands. As soon as Watson saw…

    thermophiles. Two studies have demonstrated that T. aquaticus has 4 plasmids. Thermus aquaticus is heterotrophic in nature and, needs organic compounds from the surrounding environment in order to grow and sustain life. T. aquaticus reproduces asexually via mitosis, Taq polymerase allows the bacteria to replicate at the high temperatures of its environment without denaturing. Some of the most common sources for organic material are: the algal-bacterial mat, other heterotrophs, chemoautotrophs,…
