The Effects of pGLO Plasmid Injection on Prokaryotic Gene Expression. By Kush Patel 3rd Period, AP Biology, February 12, 2024. Lab Partners: What is the difference? Brody Bonsor Andrew Zhang Marianne Baquero Clarie Gabrielson Abstract: In the pGLO lab, E. coli bacteria were genetically modified using a plasmid that contained three key genes: araC, GFP, and ampicillin resistance. Through a process of heat shock and incubation, the pGLO plasmid was successfully introduced…
In Metaphor and Thought, Hugh Petrie and Rebecca Oshlag argue that “metaphor is one of the central ways of leaping the epistemological chasm between old knowledge and radically new knowledge” (Petrie and Oshlag 583). Scientists compare cognitive domains in order to apply widely “idealized cognitive models” to previously unexplained natural phenomena (Kövecses 173). In absorbing “truly new forms of knowledge and understanding,” learners construct, reject, and accept metaphorical comparisons of…
believed at the beginning there was only prokaryotic cells, bacteria cells which are not as advanced as mammalian cells, eukaryotic cells. When a bigger prokaryotic cell engulfed a smaller one, instead of being destroyed, smaller ones helped bigger prokaryote cell to be more advanced cell; for example, bigger one started having mitochondria which is the “power house” of the cell and this is how eukaryotic cells has been created. Human body is composed of about 70 trillion of eukaryotic cells…
Introduction: Bacteria create an enormous domain of prokaryote microorganisms that are diverse and abundant in most habitats on Earth. In fact, bacterial cells drastically outnumber somatic cells just on the external part of the human body compared to somatic cells within the whole body of a single individual. Bacteria are found just about anywhere on earth and are usually alongside other microorganisms including: mold spores or yeast cells, creating some difficulty when trying to distinguish…
6th BIOLOGICAL CRISIS WHICH MAN IS THE CAUSE ABSTRACT This article will discuss the biological crises the Earth faced since the creation of the living organisms. Then, this article will argue the reasons why human beings generated a 6th biological crisis. Finally, this article will explain what the elements of this 6th biological crisis are. KEYWORDS Biological crisis, Extinction of species, environmental ecosystems, massive extinction, ecological niches, Industrial Era, greenhouses gases,…
