technological advancements to society and these have also contributed to the current genetic revolution‚ which promises to do for life what computers did for information. This increasing power and accessibility may one day give parents the option of genetically engineering the "designer baby". This may be used to spare the unborn from disease or‚ possibly‚ make them tall‚ intelligent and blessed with any desirable traits. Genetic engineering has given humans the power to alter the very basis of life on earth

MENDEL`S PRINCIPLES OF GENETICS 1.0 INTRODUCTION: 1.1 BACKGROUND Gregor Mendel‚ who is now considered as founder of classical genetics‚ ( Elrod S. & Stansfield w‚2010)‚ conducted a series of experiments using garden pea plants‚ his aim was to find a way of explaining to his fellow scientists who believed the blending theory which had been proposed earlier by Wiseman‚ that heredity involved the interaction of discrete separable factors (now known as genes) After a statistical analysis of the

Genetic disorders are a topic in biology that can not be avoided. The fact is that genetic disorders can happen in humans‚ plants or animal. No one and nothing is safe from a genetic disorder. A genetic disorder can appear in the first years off life‚ or can appear much later in life when least expected. A basic principal of biology states that the behavior of chromosomes during the meiosis process can account for genetic inheritance patterns. There are many reasons for genetic disorders. To start

is currently a substantial body of research supporting the argument that there is a genetic influence on numerous human behaviors‚ such as homosexuality‚ intelligence and personality. One indication that behavior has a genetic basis is that behavior is often species specific. Examples include the warning behavior of prairie dogs or the mouth to mouth sharing of blood amongst vampire bats. The closer our genetic resemblance is to a certain species‚ the more behaviors we have in common. Since long

Genetic Engineering Cutting Edge Science By C.A.L.A. Consulting What Is Genetic Engineering? Genetic Engineering is the process of manually adding new DNA to an organism. The goal is to add one or more new traits that are not already found in that organism. When a gene for a desirable trait is taken from one organism and inserted into another‚ it gives the recipient organism the ability to express that trait. An accent‚ click to edit the text inside.

INTRODUCTION Artificial intelligence (AI) is the intelligence exhibited by machines or software. It is also an academic field of study. Major AI researchers and textbooks define the field as "the study and design of intelligent agents"‚ where an intelligent agent is a system that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chances of success. John McCarthy‚ who coined the term in 1955‚ defines it as "the science and engineering of making intelligent machines". AI research is highly

The Genetics of Parenthood Abstract: Why do people‚ even closely related people‚ look slightly different from each other? The reason for these differences in physical characteristics‚ or appearance‚ (called phenotype) is the different combination of genes (the genotype) possessed by each individual. All of your genes are segments of DNA located on your chromosomes. To illustrate the tremendous variety possible when you begin to combine genes‚ you and a classmate will establish the
