I have studied a variety of subjects such as animal biology‚ genetics‚ comparative vertebrate anatomy‚ immunology‚ plant biology‚ biochemistry‚ and animal behavior. I have been challenged in new ways to think‚ when I fail I seek to find new approaches to solutions and remain persistent. Biochemistry was a very difficult course‚ with may cycles and chemical

Luck was a factor because‚ at the time a beer company’s beer was going off‚ so they decided to ask Pasteur for help. He then found that germs were the cause of the beer going bad. so therefore luck was most certainly a factor.Each area of land would be split into four sections. The crop that was grown on each field would be rotated so that different nutrients would be taken from the land. In the first year turnips or another root crop would be grown; in the second year barley was grown in the field

One of the most basic and important tenets of immunology is that organisms acquire stronger immunity against pathogens during their lifetimes. A prior exposure to a pathogen‚ or to pathogen signals‚ induces aspects of the host immune system such that any subsequent infection by the same pathogen triggers a more rapid‚ stronger‚ or potentially more targeted host response. In vertebrates‚ the best characterized mechanism of acquired immunity is the clonal production of long-lived lymphocytes bearing

Genetic engineering is a powerful and potentially very dangerous tool. To alter the sequence of nucleotides of the DNA that code for the structure of a complex living organism‚ can have extremely ill effects although the potential benefits can be huge. Before advances in genetic applications‚ gene therapy was unheard of and genetic defects were always inherited‚ plaguing generations. Today genetic testing is widely available‚ such as prenatal karyotyping of chromosomes to check for genetic abnormalities
