The Origin and Evolution of Life on Earth Why do we start the discussion of biology with a discussion of geology? Here are some reasons why one would do this: * All life on earth is linked to geology; likewise‚ many surface geologic features and processes have been influenced by life on earth. The origin and early evolution of the earth are especially important when looking at the origin and early evolution of life on earth. * Life chemistry had its origin with the elements available to

Population Genetics of the Alu Insertion on the PV92 region of Chromosome 16 Abstract: PCR is a laboratory method used to amplify a small‚ specifically targeted‚ amount of DNA. It has three steps‚ the denaturing of the template DNA‚ the annealing of the primers to the DNA templates and the extension of the new DNA by Taq DNA polymerase. The Alu insert on the PV92 region of chromosome 16 is targeted and its frequency is measured according to the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in the Vanier HTK population

Lab 3 - Individual Differences in Balance Ability Introduction Purpose: To examine whether our ability to balance is a general ability‚ or if it is specific to each test of balance. The concept of general motor abilities suggests that individuals have a capacity to perform classes of actions‚ and tasks that tap the same ability should be performed to an equivalent degree of success by each individual. The concept of specific motor abilities suggests that each task taps a unique ability‚ and there
