The Lewis and Clark expedition ignited a period of expansion for the US. The enormous amount of new discoveries of all the new plant and animal species gave the United States a monopoly over certain products only found in the west. Ideas knowledge learned from the Indians influenced western medicine and helped shape diverse lifestyles‚ which provided the West with a much-needed break from the archaic ways of British living. The new geography discovered on the journey coaxed others to follow the expedition’s

Yvan Mamboukuate 10/09/2013 BIO 101 Lab Report Biological Molecules Introduction: In this experiment‚ simple chemical tests will be performed to identify the presence of various types of biological molecules. These tests take advantage of the fact that different types of molecules have different functional groups and‚ therefor‚ different chemical properties. Thus‚ they will react to test reagents (also called indicators) differently. Materials: Biuret‚ Sudan III‚ Iodine‚ Benedict‚ water

compounds are soluble in water. This is due to the fact that water molecules are polar. Meaning that they have dipole bonds‚ which have a slightly positive and slightly negative end due to electronegativity differences between atoms. When ionic bonds are placed in water‚ they dissociate into their ions (positive and negative) due to the process of dissociation. These ions are then attracted to different dipoles present in the water molecule‚ in other words the negative ions are attracted to the positive

Lecture 2- overview of the virus 1. The first step- the virus binds to a receptor-->entry and uncoating--> early gene expression-->replication of viral genome-->late gene expression->assembly of viral progeny-->exit 2. Concept 2.1- Virus entry is a multistep process with the ultimate goal of delivering viral genome (payload) into the cells. A. Binding to surface receptors- - a viral receptor is cell surface molecule‚ likely a transmembrane protein - a virus may need multiple receptors

Below Poverty Line is an economic benchmark and poverty threshold used by the government of India to indicate economic disadvantage and to identify individuals and households in need of government assistance and aid. It is determined using various parameters which vary from state to state and within states. The present criteria are based on a survey conducted in 2002. Going into a survey due for a decade‚ India’s central government is undecided on criteria to identify families below poverty line

Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)1. Therefore‚ we have investigated whether the T4 molecule itself is related to the receptor for LAV. We report here that preincubation of T4+ lymphocytes with three individual monoclonal antibodies directed at the T4 glycoprotein blocked cell infection by LAV. This blocking effect was specific‚ as other monoclonal antibodies—such as antibody to histocompatibility locus antigen (HLA) class II or anti-T-cell natural killer (TNK) target—directed at other surface structures strongly expressed
