ABSTRACT Genetics is a trend these days especially that‚ DNA barcoding has been developed. DNA barcoding is an important tool in categorizing the taxa of different species and it tells so much about the species’ traits‚ including genetic diversity. The Pomacea canaliculata was introduced in different parts of Asia and had been an invasive species and a pest in different ecosystems ever since the introduction. In understanding this species of snails‚ samples were collected‚ DNA’s were extracted‚

3.2 “Lab-on-a-Chip” A Lab-on-a-Chip (LOC) device‚ also known as a micro-total-analytical system (microTAS) or microfluidics device‚ is a device that can integrate miniaturized laboratory functions (such as separation and analysis of components of a mixture) on a single microprocessor chip using extremely small fluid volumes on the order of nanoliters to picoliters. From a technology categorization perspective‚ LOCs can be viewed as a subset of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and combine

extinction events have reshaped earth in cataclysmic ways in the past 439 million years‚ each one wiping out between 50 and 95 per cent of the life of the day‚ including the dominant life forms; the most recent event killing off the non-avian dinosaurs. Speciations followed‚ but an analysis published in Nature showed that it takes 10 million years before biological diversity even begins to approach what

Dead parents are extremely common in young adult literature‚ and although these characters are obviously absent throughout the story‚ they are still relevant and necessary to the plot because of the effect they have on their children. Because “dead parents are so much a function of middle-grade and teen fiction at this point‚” it is no surprise that Collins sets up the Everdeen family with one parent deceased (Sales). However‚ instead of viewing deceased parents as enhancing the plot of a YA novel

Biology 301 12/3/2012 The Effects of Relative Fitness of Drosophila Melanogaster on Evolution Abstract This experiment was conducted to study the relative fitness of two phenotypes of the Drosophila melanogaster and how fitness can affect evolution in the population. The phenotypes were placed in two different environments‚ one in which contained a predator and another with no predator. Results of the experiment would show how the fitness of each phenotype is affected by providing a mechanism

HISTORY AND CLASSIFICATION OF BIRDS The problems of classification of birds Has gained the attention of ornithologist and many systems have been proposed in order to establish their lineage until the beginning of the 19th century. The problem was solved in a rather over simplified way by using only significant characters especially external life forms and way of life and diet. Thus these birds whose toes are joined by welds where grouped in the natatoes. Those with long legs in the gralatories‚
