The Brain The central core of the human brain‚ often referred to as the “old brain”‚ is the most primitive part of the brain and can be found in all vertebrates dating back more than 500 million years. The central core is designed to help the human body with basic survival functions such as breathing‚ heartbeat‚ movement‚ balance‚ and sleep. Without the central core‚ the brain would not be able to do major task like telling our hearts to beat and how fast. The central core of the human brain

the potential opportunity to develop a more complete understanding of cancer and birth defects—as they are due to abnormal cell division and differentiation (Frequently np). However‚ there is much debate over the ethics of using embryonic stem cells in research. The embryonic stem cells used in research are “legally obtained abortants or from early stage embryos that are destined to be discarded in the course of IVF procedures” and for this reason‚ there is nothing morally wrong with using them for

The difference between embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells is that an embryonic stem cell is not fully developed and with no specific cell tissues. Embryonic stem cells are found in the inner cells mass of the early embryo. The very first embryonic stem cells are totipotent (can be able to create all kinds of cells) but the rest after that are pluripotent which means that it can create many different types of cells such as white blood cells‚ nerve cells‚ and neurons. Adult stem cells are less

Embryonic Stem Cell Research Abstract This paper will define embryonic stem cells. The paper will also discuss the history and the uses of embryonic stem cells for research. This paper will also inform the readers of the importance of stem cell for the treatment of some diseases. The researcher will reveal the similarities and differences between embryonic and adult stem cells. This paper will inform of the dangers of collecting embryonic stem cells from the donor. The researcher will also

Embryonic stem cell research is a highly debated and sensitive topic. Such good can come from researching this technology because many people would benefit from it. In the following paragraphs‚ I will explain what embryonic stem cells are and why the United States should be utilizing this medical advancement. Further‚ I will point out the flaws in the arguments of those who are opposed to the use of these stem cells. The United States will soon fall behind other countries who will be using this

The Brain Brainstem The brain stem plays an important role in basic attention‚ arousal‚ and consciousness. It contains the medulla oblongata‚ cerebellum‚ midbrain and pons. Its functions include things that you need to survive‚ such as breathing‚ digestion‚ heart rate‚ blood pressure‚ and arousal which makes you awake and alert.All information from our body passes through the brain stem on the way to the brain. Medulla Oblangata The medulla oblongata connects the brain and spinal cord.
