Abortion used to be a topic no person would speak about. However‚ in the past decade‚ it has grown into the most debated topic of the 21st century. With every debate there stand two sides‚ the Pro -Choice and Pro-Life. The Pro-Choice group stands with the belief that it is the right of the woman to choose to have an abortion. Opposing this is the Pro-Life side‚ they hold to the conclusion that it is the right of the child to be born. Both sides collide head-on with no middle ground in sight

A person with Edwards syndrome may also have problems with the heart or kidney‚ breathing problems‚ feeding problems‚ bone abnormalities‚ or a learning disability (Source 3). Someone with this syndrome may also be prone to more frequent infections‚ such as of the lungs or urinary system (Source 3). Of those afflicted with Edwards syndrome‚ few survive to be discharged from the hospital

fertilization at conception‚ they create a normal offspring with the proper number of chromosomes of 46. Nondisjunction occurs when these chromosome fail to segregate and can cause common abnormality of having an extra chromosome or missing a chromosome in its cells thus creating an offspring with chromosome abnormalities of 45 or 47. Chromosome is a structure located inside the nucleus (center) of a cell that has long DNA molecule and proteins that present in every cell of the body. It also carries

These particular probes are especially useful for determining abnormalities in chromosomes. There is also virtual karyotype which only detects gains and losses of chromosomal

It is now believed that cognitive limitations and brain abnormalities are more suitable explanations. 3. What forms of treatment are helpful for a person with autism?

spinal muscular atrophy‚ and sickle cell anemia are just some of the disorders that can be identified using PDG technique. Whereas‚ PGS refers to screening of an embryo for aneuploidy—an abnormal number of chromosomes. PGS can identify chromosomal abnormalities that result in IVF failure‚ miscarriage and disorders such as Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21) and Edward’s syndrome (trisomy 18)‚ among many other. Therefore‚ we do have the technology that can minimize passing of the genes for certain disorders

Biosocial Theory and Social Structure Theory The discussion of the biosocial theory and the social structure theory in criminology has churned for years and has stemmed from the idea of nature or nurture. These two theories were derived and heavily influenced by the Darwinian theory of Pangenesis and natural selection; in the earlier times of this debate‚ the dominant view was the biosocial theory which claimed crime is the product of biological and environmental factors. After the emergence of sociology

Discuss genetic explanations for aggression. Early research concentrated on chromosomal abnormalities but no specific genotype has been associated with aggression. Genes determine how much testosterone a person’s body produces and how quickly it circulates around their body. Genes also determine the synthesis of testosterone receptors‚ and how many and how sensitive such receptors are. The gene called monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) produces an enzyme which regulates the metabolism of serotonin in

The results revealed that the used doses of FFCC were safe in all experiments and their effect was normal compared to control group. Significant inhibition to CP-induced chromosomal aberrations in both somatic and germ cells was observed after concurrent administration of CP and different doses of
