The two navy officers shown at left are identical twins. Why do you think identical twins look so similar? Identical twins look so similar because identical twins have the same genetic makeup‚ meaning‚ the same DNA (same nitrogenous bases). This is because

their 1953 Nature publication‚ Watson and Crick announced their landmark discovery: DNA exists in the form of a right handed‚ three-dimensional double helix. They described their DNA model as two DNA strands connected by hydrogen bonds between complementary bases. Adenine bases are always paired with thymines‚ and cytosines are always paired with guanines. Watson and Crick identified the anti-parallel configuration of DNA strands; each 5’ end of one strand is paired with the 3’ end of its complementary

Extracting DNA from Human Cheek Cells: Conclusion The hypothesis of my experiment‚ if the strawberry DNA product was strandlike yet clumply then human epithelial cell DNA will be strandlike and clumpy too‚ was supported. This is because through the observations noted when the lab was being conducted‚ it can be seen that the human epithelical cell DNA was small‚ stringy‚ clumpy and squishy‚ just like the strawberry DNA product. Other observations of the human epithelial cell DNA was it was not only

2-15-11 Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to take spinach leaves and extract the chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments by using acetone as the solvent. The chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments were extracted by using column chromography and alumina was used as the solvent. Solvents of different polarities were used‚ starting with the least polar‚ to extract the certain components from the leaves. They were then analyzed by using thin- layer chromatography. Procedure: The first part

Gatsby Essay In this extract from the novel “The Great Gatsby” by F. Scott Fitzgerald‚ the corruption and decay of the society is highlighted by the uses of various elements such as conflict‚ setting‚ characterisation and imagery. In first person‚ Nick shows his conflicting thoughts of what he thinks of the party. He feels the party and the people there are vulgar‚ yet appealing. This contradicts the way in which introduces himself – a non-judgemental who in most cases looks over the situation.

DNA: A Forensics Science Tool Deoxyribonucleic acid commonly known as DNA is a genetic material found in the nucleus of cells in all living things. It is very useful in the world of science. Especially in the world of Forensic Science. DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) is a tool that is used daily by Forensic Scientists around the world. The discovery of DNA has been remarkable. Thanks to DNA many criminal cases worldwide have been solved. The first time DNA was used in a criminal case was in 1988

The boundary between violations of individual privacy can be quite difficult to identify due to a variety of reasons. DNA is the hereditary material that is the fundamental building block for an individual’s entire genetic makeup; it can be used in order to determine a wide range of information about an individual (Wall‚ 2005). DNA test banks are the storing of DNA information

However‚ many have started to question it. The fourth amendment goes over privacy and personal rights‚ including unreasonable searches and seizures. Sarah B.
