Astrobiology: The Potential for Extraterrestrial Life Michael Russo Professor Nieter Science Inquiry: Geoscience Introduction Astrobiology is the area of study dealing with alien life‚ the likelihood of finding it‚ where it might be found‚ how it evolved‚ its morphology‚ its culture‚ etc. It’s a huge field that overlaps all the sciences but especially the geosciences‚ evolutionary biology‚ chemistry and bio-chemistry and astronomy. In the following report I focus on astrobiology as it

Trichilia roka gum was purified and analyzed and subjected to physicochemical‚ spectroscopic and rheological analysis. Results obtained from physicochemical analysis indicated that the gum is mildly acidic‚ ionic and exhibited properties that are closely related to most useful food and pharmaceutical gums. The gum has rich content of fibre‚ major elemental ions and other useful minerals. GCMS and XRF studies on the gum also revealed that the gum has several industrially useful minerals. The viscosity

Ribonucleic acid is popularly known as RNA. RNA is one of the three major macromolecules (along with DNA and proteins) that are essential for all known forms of life. RNA stands for ribonucleic acid. It is an important molecule with long chains of nucleotides. A nucleotide contains a nitrogenous base‚ a ribose sugar‚ and a phosphate. Just like DNA‚ RNA is vital for living beings. The main job of RNA is to transfer the genetic code need for the creation of proteins from the nucleus to the ribosome

For the scientist’s experiment the scientist will be experimenting with additives and gel. We will be adding different substances such as table salt‚ citric acid‚ and sugar. The scientist’s problem statement is “What kind of substances make gel the strongest?” The independent variable will be the different additives (Table salt‚ citric acid‚ and sugar) which will be added using tablespoons. The dependent variable is the strength of the gel which will be measured using a scale of 10. The constant

The Human Genome Project (HGP) and bioinformatics Initiated in October 1990 and completed in April 2003‚ the Human Genome Project (HGP) was a 13-year project coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Institutes of Health. Its goals were to identify all the approximately 25‚000-30‚000 genes in the human genome‚ to determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up the human genome‚ to store the information that resulted from the project in databases‚
