Sickle Cell Disease Physical-Adult • Eye problems. The retina‚ the "film" at the back of the eye that receives and processes visual images‚ can deteriorate when it does not get enough nourishment from circulating red blood cells. Damage to the retina can be serious enough to cause blindness. • Jaundice‚ or yellowing of the skin‚ eyes‚ and mouth. Yellowing of skin and eyes. These are signs of jaundice‚ resulting from rapid breakdown of red blood cells. • Delayed growth and puberty in children

Hydrogen Fuel Cells There are many reasons to look for new cleaner forms of energy. Fossil fuels‚ being non-renewable‚ will eventually run out. Pollution from burning fossil fuels destroys our environment. Hydrogen fuel cells could be used many places where fossil fuels are currently being used. Using hydrogen as a form of energy can not only reduce our dependence on imported oil‚ but also benefit the environment by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants that affect our air quality

contemporary biological issue Introduction Stem cells are undifferentiated cells able to differentiate into specialized cell types. These are used for stem cell treatment‚ which is an intervention strategy that introduces new adult stem cells into damaged tissue in order to treat disease or injury. For over 30 years‚ bone marrow and‚ more recently‚ umbilical cord blood stem cells have been used to treat cancer patients with leukaemia and lymphoma because during chemotherapy most growing cells are killed‚ but a donor’s

Functions of the cells The functions of cells are shown in the body which is comprised entirely of cells. Every cell also has its own or more than one job to do. The cell membrane The cell membrane also known as the - plasma membrane. It consist of two layers of a fatty type substance. Its function is to protect the inside and the outside of the cell by allowing certain substances into the cell‚ while keeping other substances out. It also serves as a base of attachment for the cytoskeleton in some

Stem Cell Research One of the numerous scientific topics that creates a great divide between Americans and political party platforms is the approval or disapproval of stem cell research. There is very firm support and opposition to this topic‚ and it can often provoke heated discussions amid the general public and those in academia. The core of the debate specifically revolves around embryonic stem cell research and the ethical implications that come with experimentation on human embryos. When

to a phone that could be taken virtually anywhere. He called it the cell phone. The cell phone today doesn’t share anything more than its name with the original Cooper model from 1983. However‚ the cell phone remains just as much of a groundbreaking device that divides people in very powerful ways. There are some who strongly back the product and those who stand strongly against it with very valid reasons. At times‚ the cell phone serves as a powerful communication device for humans and as a

Comparing Plant and Animal Cells Hypothesis: I predict I will see the following organelles when observing a plant and animal cell under a microscope: the cell membrane‚ cell wall‚ nucleus‚ and the endoplasmic reticulum. Frog Blood: Analysis: 1. The shape of the frog blood cell was in a circle‚ or oval. The edges were a little irregular‚ but it could still be identified as‚ basically‚ a circular shape. 2. The cells were produced by an animal‚ a frog. 3. The cell wall was not present

Animal Cell Song I’m here to talk to you about animal cells. They are made up of many organelles. Chromosome‚ nucleus‚ those are a few They need them to live like me and you. Well we’ll start with the nucleus the “command center.” It’s the brain of the cell and keeps it away from danger. It’s a safe haven for the chromosomes. They store DNA like our own. The precious DNA carries our genes. Genes tell the cell what to do like info. machines. Now let’s talk about the mitochondrion
