During pregnancy‚ the embryo or fetus is very sensitive and at risk to whatever dangers the mother faces. For nine months the mother and child are interconnected and have a mutual relationship. The embryo or fetus survives off of the nutrients and lifestyle of the mother. It also feeds off of the vitamins and proteins that enter the mother’s bloodstream through the placenta. Unfortunately‚ this system can have negative effects. Any drug that enters the mothers system‚ prescription or non-prescription

2/15/13 Period 2 Research on the use of embryonic stem cells has sparked controversial debates all over the United States. What makes them so controversial? It is where they come from. Embryonic stem cells are “blank cells” harvested from an early stage embryo that have the potential to turn into any kind of cell in the human body. Usually‚ these embryos are unused from in vitro fertilizations and would otherwise be thrown away. Embryonic stem cells have the potential to treat people with diseases

Stem cells are a growing field for research. Many pursue this field due to the fact that it can solve many illnesses. Since stem cells are extracted from embryos‚ people have an ethical problem with it. Those who research stem cells believe there are ethical restrictions‚ but that is not true. As a result of stem cell research‚ embryos are being harmed or destroyed; therefore stem cell research should only be performed if there is an alternative solution. Stem cells are undefined cells that are

Jonas Vanaman Mary Jo Loftin English 3 8-4-15 Stem Cell Research: Right or Wrong? Many people believe that stem cell research could be helpful or destructive. Stem cells are the body’s raw materials. They are cells from which any other cells with specialized functions are generated. They can be used to become a specialized cell(s) (differentiation) with a more specific function such as brain cells‚ heart muscle or bone‚ blood cells.

Stem cell research is an emotive subject. Some maintain that it is unethical to introduce stem cell research. While others believe that stem cell research could potentially help save many lives. With the advances in stem cell research‚ we should now be able to help save people who are affected with such diverse diseases such as Parkinson’s‚ Alzheimer’s and heart disease. Stem cells also have the capability to aid others with debilitating diseases and to help those who have suffered damage to critical

Moral or Immoral Should people have the power to act as God? Should scientific studies be limited? Some people would say yes‚ while others would say no. There are countless debates that are constantly going on in the biological field. Two examples of these highly debated topics are stem cell research and euthanasia. In the U.S. today‚ many people are questioning the morality of stem cell research and euthanasia. Stem cells are cells that can renew themselves. They have the ability of making an

Frog Embryology The Egg The frog egg is a huge cell; its volume is over 1.6 million times larger than a normal frog cell. During embryonic development‚ the egg will be converted into a tadpole containing millions of cells but containing the same amount of organic matter. * The upper hemisphere of the egg — the animal pole — is dark. * The lower hemisphere — the vegetal pole — is light. * When deposited in the water and ready for fertilization‚ the haploid egg is at metaphase of meiosis

Lactoferrin also could be used potentially to help treat some auto-immune diseases. Sufferers of arthritis‚ multiple sclerosis‚ and even septic shock could benefit from Lactoferrin’s ability to keep the immune system in check and from over-reacting. In studies‚ it was found that Lactoferrin reduced the mortality of pigs introduced to septic shock by twenty five percent. It was also show to reduce the blood-toxin levels in rats in another study. Lactoferrin’s many properties‚ lowering inflammatory
