The Mysterious Cell There is no cure‚ and while some can assume‚ no one knows the actual cause! How do words like this make you feel? What if these words were paired with your young child? How about the addition of shortened life span‚ major complications including loss of limbs‚ blindness and constant control? In many cases the same words are portrayed onto parents of newly diagnosed type 1 diabetics everyday. On average‚ every hour of every day‚ someone is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus

skeletal system. Endochondral ossification is the process through which the axial and appendicular skeletons are formed through the formation of a cartilage inter-mediate. A good model for endochondral ossification is the limb bud where the precursor cells of the mesenchyme condense and then followed by the differentiation of the most central chondrocytes. Endochondral ossification is a highly regulated process by different signalling like the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)‚ a tyrosine kinase

Triclosan is an artificial chemical with antimicrobial properties that eradicate or hinder the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria or fungi. This chemical was first made known n 1972 when it was used in hospitals for surgical scrubs. The overall population is subjected to Triclosan because it is widely used in many products that people use on a daily basis. For example Triclosan is found in “soaps‚ cosmetics‚ therapeutics and plastics” (http://www.pnas.org/content/111/48/17200.full). In addition

Therapeutic Cloning to Obtain Embryonic Stem Cells Is Immoral "The point is to cause each of us to think deeply about whether there is any essential difference between the reality of [World War II] Nazi experiments and ’therapeutic cloning.’" In this two-part viewpoint‚ David A. Prentice and William Saunders discuss the science and the ethics of therapeutic cloning. In the first part‚ Prentice argues that creating clones for the purpose of embryonic stem cell research‚ called "therapeutic cloning

There are researchers‚ scientists‚ and doctors discovering ways to benefit the terminally ill and‚ in many cases‚ even cures for those people with the use of stem cells. Even though this may sound as though it would produce only a positive outcome‚ it is also a debatable subject. The majority of the vote against this research is due to moral issues.
