tissue different to the site from which they were originally isolated (Arthur, adult human dental pulp stem cells) (Arthur, implanted adult human). Bone marrow SCs are the most comprehensively studied due to a variety of cell surface and genetic markers which have helped define various stages of their differentiation during hematopoiesis (Fischbach).

I am a sister. The day I became one was the first day I left the house without a doll in tow. When we arrived at the NICU, I immediately pressed my little nose and palms against the window and peered in with a bit of confusion. Three years old and a couple feet tall, I expected her to resemble one of my dolls, but that wasn’t the case. My doll wore dresses, not cords on her body and face. Mommy and Daddy gently rested their hands on my shoulders; exhaustion hung from their eyes. “Meagan is…
her best counted. She sighed. Rocking back and forth on her heals, she looked to her right and then to her left. She was the only one waiting on the platform. She sighed again. She reached into a side pocket for something useful, but found a permanent marker instead. Glancing at the steel pole next to her, greasy, dirty, grimy, it was decorated with graffiti.

From Poop to Problem: America’s Struggle to Accommodate Transgendered People in Public Restrooms Why is America obsessed with bathrooms? Personally I avoid obsessing over the places that people of all kinds make a tinkle or relieve the pressure on their external anal sphincters, or even on occasion both at the same time. These frequently foul smelling places have become the focal point of so much controversy in the world of gender equality. State and local governments, along with schools and…
The Reclamation of the Feminine in Fin de Siècle Splendor Although removing gender markers from culture may appear progressive and egalitarian, the defeminization of women in China during the Cultural Revolution suppressed gender expression altogether, and created an oppressive and regressive gender sameness instead. Defeminization, by removing the feminine characteristics from gender, created a population that was masculine by default, thus characterizing femininity as expendable and…
Permanence is a potent concept in any contemporary city. Within an age of transience, I find young people are becoming more willing to engage in the realms of the permanent. There appears to be a salient rise in the desire for people to signify that which they undoubtedly own – their own bodies. Tattoos fulfil this purpose. It becomes evident to me that the richness of Auckland’s culture is reflected in the myriad of views towards covering the body in ink. This societal variation inevitably…

Question: How do different surface areas affect bacterial growth? Hypothesis: I think that the bacterial growth will be different in terms of size, shape, type and color. I think that different bacterias will grow on each quadrant because each surface of collection has unique bacterias. The unique bacterias will contribute to the fact that the size and color of them will also be different. I also predict that the growth of bacteria on the toilet seat (1D) will have the most colonies because it…
