on animals for our own benefit? Many may disagree and believe its immoral and shouldnt be done. Science and manufacturing need animal experimentation to prevent harm to humans because it helps to develope cures for disease and to save humans from experimentation. Animal rights activist oppose the use of animals for medical research arguing that it’s cruel and immoral. The truth is some of the animals dont even suffer. Many people dont understand that because of animal testing many medical advancements

Genetic Diversity In Agriculture Genetic variation is the raw material for the plant breeder‚ who must often select from primitive and wild plants‚ including wild species‚ in search of new genes. The appearance of new diseases‚ new pests‚ or new virulent forms of disease causing organisms makes it imperative that the plant be preserved‚ because it offers a potential for the presence of disease resistant genes not present in cultivated varieties. Also‚ there are demands for new characters-- for

Should animals be used for scientific or commercial testing? From at least 1948‚ animals are being used by the U.S space program for testing aspects of space travel. Animals are used to help in medical treatments‚ determining the toxicity of medications‚ checking the safety of products for humans‚ and other commercial and biomedical uses. Though many say that there is no alternative method for researching a living organism‚ animals are so different from humans that the results are mostly irrelevant

Using animals to test household products and cosmetics is not necessary but when it comes for medical purposes‚ it is crucial. Even then‚ experts argue that animal testing for medical purposes lead to wrong ideas and provide unreliable data. Other experts say that most of today’s vaccines and medicine come from animal experimentation. Animal testing should continue for medical purposes. Over

What impact do genetics and the environment have on your self-identity – (Who do you look like - parents‚ grandparents‚ others and the home environment communication‚ expression of emotions‚ etc.) The way I am impacted through genetics is my addiction of playing cricket. I always play cricket with my brothers. When I was back home in Pakistan‚ we used to play every day. It was usually watching my brothers‚ and then I decided to play with them. I feel I like cricket because of genetics. Since my

If A and a are alleles for a particular gene and each individual has two alleles then p is the frequency of the A allele and q is the frequency of a alleles. The frequency of the possible diploid combinations is expressed in the equation

Genetic modification is becoming a heated debate over protecting a newborn from genetic diseases to manipulating genes for personal preferences. Many agree with the notion of curing cancer or dyslexia through gene manipulation. However‚ there are a lot of debates on changing the DNA sequence for personal dislikes such as personality characteristics and intelligent statuses. Genetic modification should not be used to satisfy the desires of

In the movie‚ parents can choose their children’s abilities before they born. Genetic manipulation is common. With this people try to get rid of disease genetics. If a person born in natural ways‚ they call them ‘‘invalid’’. ‘‘Invalid’’ people do not have some rights compared with other born with genetic manipulation. It can also be called eugenics

offenders (Retz et al 2003). The role of genetic factors in aggression can be tested in twin studies. Genes are identical in sets of monozygotic twins but are different between sets of dizygotic twins‚ meaning that if monozygotic twins are more alike in terms of aggression than dizygotic twins are‚ this similarity can be attributed to genetics. These twin studies have generally found that almost 50% of variance in aggressive behaviour can be attributed to genetic factors (Coccaro et al 1997). Adoption

Genetics is an intellectual interest of mine. I was first attracted to genetics by a documentary about Neanderthals. Although the documentary itself wasn’t on genetics‚ it mentioned how some humans have a percentage of Neanderthal genes in them. I found this incredibly interesting that our genes could be traced back in history. I was further interesting about genetics was that one could have genetic mutations. This led me to wonder if maybe there are people in the world with genetic mutations that
