Clostridium perfringens is typically found in soil and if this is eaten or coming in contact with the animal it can cause variety of diseases, especially in domestic animals. These diseases include different enteric syndromes such as bovine and ovine enterotoxemia, fowl necrotic enteritis, and lamb dysentery. Strains of most toxin types like alpha and beta toxin have been involved in necrotic enteritis beta toxin is caused by type-C strains. The pulpy kidney disease is caused by type-D strains…

Cancer is a condition where abnormal cells grow and divide or normal cells divide at an accelerated pace more times than they should. Cancer.gov describes cancer as follows “Cancer is the name given to a collection of related diseases. In all types of cancer, some of the body’s cells begin to divide without stopping and spread into surrounding tissues.” The human body is a marvelous machine. It is designed from top to bottom to operate at optimum efficiency and this requires the periodic and…

What protects a human being from external danger? A car 's seat belt? A helmet? Or our very own organ known as the skin? The skin is one of the most amazing organs in the human body. Skin is made up of specific cells and tissues to act as the boundary between you, me and the world. However, there are some factors that we have to pay attention to regarding our skins. The physiology of Skin will give an in dept explanation and description of its structure, functions, and diseases. The skin is the…

Cancer refers to several diseases that the involve uncontrolled growth of mutated cells in the body. Normally, cells grow and divide based on signals and the body’s needs, and new cells replace old or damaged cells. However, cancer is able to develop when cell signaling is interrupted. The old cells stop dying and instead form new abnormal cells, possibly resulting in a tumor. Cancerous cells are malignant, which means they can invade nearby tissue, and can potentially metastasize and spread to…

There are several features about me that describe who I am. For instance; I can be funny, kind, intelligent and headstrong. However, I suffer from acute shyness and tend to panic easily and at times it has caused problems in my personal life. Such as writing essays about myself or having the confidence to stand in front of a room of my peers and present, but my shyness does not define who I am or what I stand for. What defines me are my passions such as animals and biology, my fears and…

‘With an estimated 425,416 individuals living with it, Dementia is the second leading cause of death of Australians contributing to 5.4% of all deaths in males and 10.6% of all deaths in females each year.’ (Dementia Australia, 2018) Genetic testing is a fundamental phenomenon in 21st century society. Testing processes reveal the likelihood of an individual inheriting, passing on, or living with a suspected genetic condition. These medical tests identify any changes in proteins, chromosomes or…

researching and examine one type of cell, the results can be assumed for all similar types of cell. The second concept is that all cells are descended from each other. This clarifies that all cells are duplicated from each other again go through mitosis or cell division. This is significant because it demonstrates that those cells are aimed to…

Reproduction of Archaebacteria Archaeal bacteria do not have a nucleus, so it can not go through mitosis. In a means to reproduce, they procreate using binary fission. During the process multiple fission, the replication of the archaeal DNA occurs and the two strands are pulled apart. Archaeal chromosomes replicate using DNA polymerases that mirror complements eukaryotic enzymes. Protein FtsZ, the protein that directs cell division, forms a contracting ring around the cell. The factors of the…

It is right for human beings to manipulate nature for their benefit. Without doing such things humans would not have lifesaving medicines or other beneficial procedures. Also, the act of altering nature is in itself a natural phenomenon, common to many species other than human beings. In addition, without the manipulation of nature we would not have anything other than the very basest of lifestyles; therefore, we would never have progressed past our ancient B.C. ancestors’ way of life. Finally,…

is allowed to attach to the cell’s DNA, it then forms cross links in the DNA that blocks the ability that a cell has to read code, a necessary ability for the cell to function. The DNA is basically changed and then the cells aren't able to perform mitosis (a type of cell division where the two daughter cells have the same amount and type of chromosomes as their parent nucleas). If enough of the DNA is unreadable, the cell will die, and that is how a platinum based medicine works, like…
