A genetically altered baby is something some people have only dreamed about, but now, it has become a reality. Scientist have discovered a way to alter human genetic traits and produce the perfect offspring. Some traits scientists have tried to alter include sex, eye color, and height, but it is still in the experimenting stage and should be possible within the next few years. Add more. Creating genetically altered babies should be prohibited. Genetically altering babies is still in the…

Eubacteria best live in moderate temperatures, low salts and where there is a plethora of sunlight or organic compounds (Ladiges, 2010). The main differentiating structure of eubacteria is that it has peptidoglycan in its cell walls, has one RNA polymerase and has the ability to form spores that can live many years but remain inactive until its environment is just right for it to activate itself. They are similar to eukaryotes in that they also have ester linked lipids,…

Most importantly, we have tools like stem cells to help science advance many medical researches that could lead to break through in medicine. I know that anti-abortion groups will want us to believe that abortion is wrong and evil, we should disregard their arguments because they are solely based…

added to the waiting list about every 10 minutes (facts). The use of 3D organ cloning is an ethical alternate to full body cloning to aid in the organ shortage crisis in this country. Cloning Cloning involves taking DNA from a cell, and implanting it into another cell to be reproduced. This technique can be used to create a human embryo, and ultimately a human being, however it is highly debated and considered unethical. With the cloning of Dolly the sheep in 1996, the idea of cloning for…

A genetic research advancement enables genetic counselors to obtain information on the specific genes of an embryo. Currently, a test can reveal whether several life-threatening diseases or disabilities, such as Tay-Sachs or Autism, are prevalent in an embryo. As research continues to progress, scientists perceive it will be possible to test for non-disease genes such as intelligence, violence, or memory capability. Therefore, as many couples utilize in vitro fertilization (IVF) to reproduce,…

CONCEPT 2: THE CONCEPT OF HOLISM IN NURSING CARE This concept is taken from Block 5, Module 2 which is entitled as “Individual health”. The word holism is a Greek word that signifies entire or whole. According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, holism is a theory that the universe and especially living nature is correctly seen in terms of interacting wholes (as of living organisms) that are more than the mere sum of elementary particles. Holism in nursing can be referred to as holistic nursing which…

Innovation in Taxi Industry Evolution of the Transport Industry: The first form of transport was, of course, Shanks pony (the human foot!). However people eventually learned to use animals for transport. Various animals were domesticated before the mechanical vehicles came into the picture. Later, in 1935 the first parking meter was installed in the USA. This acted as one of catalyst for the emergence of the Taxi Industry which is now being revolutionized by the advent of new applications.…

HUMAN CLONING: PROS AND CONS OF REPRODUCTIVE CLONING Cloning is the process of creating identical cells, genes, organs or even organisms through asexual reproduction. It has been a common practice of mankind for a long time. It has becomes the debatable issue since it was used to clone animals around 40-50 years ago. Human cloning has created an offense toward ethical issue of human right. According to Yadav and Sharma (2011), the person who promoted human cloning must convince others and show…

SCIENCE ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY MATHEMATICS By Teanah Bautista and Izak Ford BIOLOGY OF HEARING The hearing is a quite a significant piece of creation used by humans. The complex organization of bones, hair, and cells it captures vibrated sound waves and processes to the brain. With everything happening almost instantly. But it's not as easy as it sounds. The sound is invisible vibrated particles through the air. The moving vibrations cause the air around to also vibrate creating sound waves…

stressed out red blood cells to create an environment where harmful malaria bacteria would not be able to thrive in. The cause was later isolated in 1956 by medical researchers as G6PD deficiency which is common in African and Mediterranean descents. G6PD is an enzyme that protects red blood cells from damage, and premature death. This means that the bodies of people with G6PD deficiency will be weaker against harmful bacteria, and with primaquine stressing the red blood cells, the body becomes…
