worth it. General stem cell research has been going on for many years‚ but due to cut funding‚ advancements have been inhibited. It was cut because embryonic stem cells research is considered unethical‚ but embryonic stem cells open a whole new realm of possibilities. The debate of using these stem cells has been argued for a long period of time. Certain stem cell research may be considered unethical‚ but the

SCIENCE CELL – STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONS Cell – Structure and Functions Cell as the Basic Unit of Life The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of all living organisms. It is the smallest part of the body of an organism‚ is capable of independent existence and is able to perform the essential functions of life. Discovery of the Cell Robert Hooke observed cork cells under a simple microscope designed by him. He observed compartments resembling honeycombs and each compartment

STEM CELLS Where are stem cells sourced from? Stem cells are sourced from three main sources‚ Embryos‚ bone marrow and umbilical cord blood. Each different sources’ Stem Cells are either totipotent‚ pluripotent or multipotent. Refer to Figure 1 Figure 1 Stem Cells can be categorised into their capability of being cultured into a different cell. Embryonic Stem Cells: Are pluripotent cells meaning they can be cultured into most cell types. The Embryonic Cells are sourced from in the internal cell mass

Lab 4: Cell Structures and the Gram Stain Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to familiarize the student with the use of a compound microscope and the Gram Stain test. Students will review a brief video and slides to introduce the compound microscope. Students will also view a video about the Gram Stain procedure and then answer questions related to it. Hypothesis If I look at the slides I will see where the cell wall is and what lies inside it and in the Gram Stain if I watch the video I will

Stem Cell Research Legislation For some time now‚ stem cell research has been a major issue when it comes to ethics. “Ethics‚ science and religion became further intertwined with politics in the 1990’s‚ increasing the battles among congress‚ administrations‚ and other agencies” (Scott‚ 2006‚ p.153). Stem cell research is probably one of the most important scientific advancements in the past one hundred years. Stem Cell research began in the 1800’s‚ with the discovery that some cells could actually

Is Stem Cell Research Ethical? Stem Cell Research Stem Cell testing and research covers many different areas today. These cells are the basic center of where cells of any tissue in the body grow. Stem cells have the ability to grow into many different types of tissue that is why they are so unique. Stem Cells can be grown to replace almost any tissue that has been damaged or destroyed by disease. With so many diseases today that are said to be untreatable or have no cure

Stem Cell Research Stem cell research is very controversial in today’s world. Although stem cell research has the potential for curing diseases and conditions‚ some people view stem cell research as unethical and immoral. People do not realize that there is hope for medical advancement today because medical specialists can use stem cell research to grow practically any cells needed for sick patients. Today‚ I am going to tell you what deontology is‚ how the school of thought views stem cell research
