To study biomedical engineering has been my dream. Einstein distinguished science from engineering when he explained‚ "Scientists investigate that which already is; engineers create that which has never been.". I wish to pursue a career in biomedical engineering as it is a great way of being involved in both fields of engineering and medicine. My desire to study biomedical engineering had been driven by the desire to treat diseases through the help of modern technology. I was always been fascinated

Evolution by natural selection is slow but can be observed in certain situations. How to spot evolution in real time: Artificial selection – manipulation by humans such as breeding dogs or growing corn. Repro-rate – rate of reproduction. Stochastic Event: unexpected disaster like a volcano eruption or tornado. (Research geological time) LIVING THINGS: Biology – Study of living things. Living things – all the organisms descended from a single-celled ancestor. * Characteristics:

I. A. Neutral Evolution 1. Kimura 1968 2. Proposed much of genetic variation is neutral 3. Neutral mutations do not affect phenotype a) Either do not alter product of gene b) Affect non-coding regions of DNA 4. Not subject to natural selection 5. Useful for reconstructing phylogenies B. Speciation 1. Formation of new species from ancestral species 2. 2 components a) genetic isolation b) Genetic divergence 3. Adds new branch to the tree of life C. Species Concept 1. Evolutionary independent

DNA Lab Report SungYong Jang What is DNA? What do the letters stand for? What is it composed of? Where is it found? What is it shaped like? Answer in full sentences. It is the genetic material that can be passed on from parent to offspring DNA --> Deoxyribonucleic acid It composed of Deoxyribose (5 carbon sugar)‚ a phosphate and a Nitrogonous base (the 4 N-bases are Guanine‚ Cytosine‚ Adenine and Thymine) It is a double helix (looks like

Human VNTR Biology 101 October 23‚ 2009 Lab Partner: INTRODUCTION All human beings have genomes‚ or DNA that include all of their unique genetic information. Every strand of DNA is different per individual‚ which accounts for human diversity in the world. Variable Number Tandem Repeat (VNTR) is a short sequence of DNA that is repeated at a specific chromosomal locus. The number of tandem repeated units vary between individuals; therefore‚ every human being’s unique sequence of base pairs can

Psychology Revision | Unit 1 and Unit 2 | | | Damien Edwards | | | | Cognitive Approach Craik and Tulving (1975) Aim – To test the Levels of Processing theory‚ and see if words processed semantically had better recall than words processed phonetically or structurally. Results – 17% recall for structural‚ 36% for phonetic and 65% for semantic processing. Conclusion – The deeper the level of processing‚ the stronger the memory‚ while shallow processing produces weak memory
