roles of mitotic cell division‚ meiosis‚ and fertilization in the human life cycle. Mitosis allows for growth and repair from the fertilized egg to the adult. In reproductively mature individuals‚ meiosis creates gametes with half the genetic material. The male gamete then fertilizes the female gamete during sexual reproduction‚ forming a zygote with a full set of genetic material. 2. Why are both cell division and apoptosis necessary for the development of an organism? Cell division is needed

STEM CELL RESEARCH AND THERAPYAND ITS IMPACTS ON SOCIETY Abstract There are several types of stem cells being used in stem cell research and therapy today. They are embryonic‚ adult and induced pluripotent stem cells. Each will be discussed further. This topic has stirred much moral‚ ethical and political debate as whether cells from fetuses should be used in this research. This impacts governmental policies on laws and funding. Another issue that must be analyzed is the

SPECIALIZED CELL ANIMAL Sperm cells PLANT Xylem cells are specialised to find a female cell (egg cells) and join with it. They have tails‚ that makes them move in water to find and fertilize the female cell. They can move because they have many mitochondria located between the tail and the head‚ which gives them energy. In the head‚ there is a vacuole filled with acrosome‚ which is a specialized Lysosome that releases enzymes in order for the Sperm Cell to break into the Egg Cell‚ through the

1. INTRODUCTION A solar cell is a device that converts the energy of sunlight directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. Sometimes the term solar cell is reserved for devices intended specifically to capture energy from sunlight‚ while the term photovoltaic cell is used when the light source is unspecified.”Photovoltaics” the field of technology and research related to the application of solar cells in producing electricity for practical use.

Xylem is part of a plant‚ which is a hollow tube with spiral thickening of lignin around the wall giving strength‚ which is continuous throughout the whole plant. The difference between the Xylem cell and other cells is that the Xylem is dead and has no cytoplasm. The Xylem is responsible for transporting water and certain nutrients form root to plant. Phloem carries soluble organic material i.e. food for the plant. The top of the plant is in the light‚ conducting photosynthesis and helping the plant

Stem cells agreement by Zayne Burnham Many scientists are now researching special types of cells called stem cells. Stem cells are very important and have the potential to cure many diseases; however there are also many issues to consider when using stem cells. Stem cells research has created concern for some in the community‚ national and international.beacause the best source of stem cells is growing human embryo. The dilemma is that the growing embryo is the earliest stage of human life extracting
