Module 4 - Case TRIDENT UNIV OCT 1‚ 2014 BIO 101 Module 4 Case 1. Explain what a genetic mutation is and the difference between inherited mutations versus point mutations. According to the Genetics Home Reference (2014)‚ a gene mutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence within a given gene (Par. 1). These mutations can vary greatly as they range in size. There are two main ways in which these mutations can occur. They are referred to as inherited mutations and point mutations. An inherited

Effects of Genetics and Environment on Substance Abuse Human Growth and Development 11/30/11 Abstract Previous research has shown direct links between environmental factors and substance use in adolescents‚ while the link between genetic factors and substance abuse may only be inferred. The current research further investigates the correlation between genetic and environmental factors and substance abuse in adolescents. The results showed overwhelming evidence that

Soil mechanics is one of the new disciplines of civil engineering‚ concerning the study of soil. It gathers data and provides the theoretical base for analysis in geotechnical engineering. In earlier times‚ constructions were built based on assumptions. After some important foundation-related engineering problems‚ example of the Leaning Tower of Pisa‚ engineers

1. The use of knowledge and understanding of mathematics in engineering context. Mathematics is science of pattern that engineers seek out whether found in numbers‚ space‚ science‚ computers‚ imaginary abstractions‚ or elsewhere. Knowledge and use of basic mathematics have always been an inherent and integral part of engineering. In our previous semester‚ basic mathematics was applied in almost every module. From stress analysis of simple machine components to numerical description of various

Evolution‚ Genes & the Environment Variation is when you refer to genes; it means that there is a large variety of phenotypes‚ alleles and genotypes which can sometimes cause genetic variation. This results in different physical characteristics. Some examples of variations in humans are eye colour‚ hair colour and gender. Variations caused by the environment are the climate (tanned/pale skin) this is affected by the environment as the sun comes in contact with your skin and will darken it‚ the
