Statement for Issues That Concern You: Music and how it affects the brain “Without music‚ life would be a mistake” - Friedrich Nietzsche was a German philologist‚ philosopher‚ cultural critic‚ poet and composer. When we listen to music‚ it is processed in many different areas of or brain. The extent of the brain’s involvement was scarcely imagined until the earlier nineties‚ when functional brain imaging becomes possible. In fact‚ our brains actually respond differently to happy and sad music. Ambient

Introduction Drosophila melanogaster is a common fruit fly that has been useful for most experiments in the study of Genetics. The male and the female fruit fly are similar and different in regards to how they look‚ structurally. They are similar because both genders have a head‚ thorax‚ proboscis‚ antennae‚ eyes‚ and mouth parts. However‚ males are smaller than females and have about five abdominal segments as opposed to the seven that the female has. The life cycle of these fruit flies consist

the dominant and recessive phenotypes and their frequencies in the population? i. The dominant phenotypes do not always occur more commonly than recessive phenotypes do; that is‚ the dominancy of a phenotype in the population is independent of the dominance of the corresponding allele. In other words‚ the phenotype that has the higher allele frequency will be more abundant in the population. e. Newlyweds Bill and Sue are non-freckled. Since each had one parent who had freckles‚ they wonder what the

INTRODUCTION TO DROSOPHILA GENETICS DROSOPHILA CULTURE We will study basic principles of Mendelian inheritance with the use of the fruit fly‚ Drosophila melanogaster [the name means “black-bodied fruit-lover”]. Drosophila was one of the first organisms to be studied genetically: its small size‚ short life cycle (10 ~14 days at 25oC)‚ high reproductive rate (an adult female can lay 400-500 eggs in 10 days)‚ and ease of culture and genetic manipulation have made it perhaps the best understood animal
