a) The characteristics that showed up most frequently were:One nose‚ pink coloured nose‚ 2 antennas‚ 6 legs‚ 2 eyes and 2 green humps were the most common characteristics. b) The Characteristics that showed up very seldom were:3 eyes‚ 2 body segments‚ blue legs‚ 1 antenna‚ a straight tail and 1 green hump. c) The following traits were found to be homozygous dominant:EE ( Eye number - 2 eyes)CC (Curly Tail)VV (Red eyes)d) The following traits were found to be heterozygous:Aa (Antenna number: 2 antennas)Mm

Diseases Our bodies are made up of cells and within those cells hold our unique DNA and genetic make-up called genes. Genes are made up of strings of DNA and contain the directions that our bodies use to make the millions of proteins our bodies use (Ireland‚ 2010). Our genes are further organized into something called a chromosome. A chromosome contains our genes and in those genes you will find our DNA (Ireland‚ 2010)‚ so you can say that our bodies are like a huge filing cabinet and the chromosomes

cytosine (C)‚ guanine (G) and thymine (T). Genes: a discrete unit of hereditary information consisting of a specific nucleotide sequence DNA (or RNA in some viruses). Gene expression: the process by which information encoded in DNA directs the synthesis of proteins or‚ in some cases‚ RNAs that are not translated into proteins and instead function as RNAs. Genome: the genetic material of an organism or virus. Genomics: the study of whole sets of genes and their interactions within a species‚ as

genetic diseases‚ since inheritance plays a role in procuring the disease. There are countless of studies concerning genetic diseases. Gene mapping is used in describing how a gene could have been mutated or altered in a way for a condition to be developed. Knowing the loci for diseases also helps in finding a treatment. Many diseases can attest to certain genes being involved in their development. Duane syndrome is one example of these genetic diseases. People who suffer from this rare condition

the type of organisms are nearly the same‚ but a new gene is placed into an embryo prior to birth. This new technology is to produce organisms with benefits for humans. When this is inserted into the embryo successfully‚ all of the tissues and cells of the new modified organism will contain the foreign gene‚ even their germ cells‚ so these organisms will be able to pass these wanted genes to the possible offspring. By inserting these new genes‚ many issues such as health care can be addressed. Animals

Human genome is known to be the sequencing of about twenty thousand five hundred thousand genes that make up our human DNA‚ or the building block that tells our cells what to do. The government created project that is named the Human Genome Project started in 1990’s‚ and is trying to pick apart at the three billion chemical base pairs in a DNA strand. The full set of the information present in the form of the genes in living organism then forms its genome. Each individual person has twenty three pairs

Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) constitutes a variety of epileptic disorders in humans‚ the most common being juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). There is strong evidence that JME can be caused by a faulty genetic variation in the human gene bromodomain-containing protein 2 (BRD2). For this reason‚ many studies on BRD2 homologues have been conducted to determine the function of this protein. Studies on human BRD2 have revealed that certain polymorphisms in non-coding regions near the promoter

takes place during the time of World War Two at a preparatory school in New Hampshire called Devon. The two biggest characters are Gene Forrester and his best friend Phineas and the differences between the two boys demonstrate how difficult friendship can be. Especially with the added struggle of finding personal identities while the war is present. But the envy Gene has for Finny complicated the boundaries between Gene’s personality and Phineas’. This question of identity is the center of the novel
