microevolution of Alu element TPA-25 was tested in the experiment through the examination‚ observation‚ and analysis of population alleles distribution under the Hardy-Weinberg Theory of Genetic Equilibrium. Alu elements affect the genome by causing insertion mutations‚ recombination between elements‚ gene conversion‚ and alterations in gene expression. In the lab PCR was used to amplify a short piece of DNA from human genome which allowed us to look for a DNA sequence called an Alu element. Electrophoresis

The wild type and the mutant type strains of Halobacteria were used in this experiment to examine the phenotypic differences against each strain’s genotypes. The mutant strain (KBT-1) did not possess gas vesicles‚ which decreased its ability to float to the surface. The lack of gas vesicles in the mutant strain made the colonies a red color. The wild type strain (NRC-1) had gas vesicles and appeared a pink pigment color. Growth on the agar allowed one to examine the specific colonies. Inoculation

for this reason that airway and ventilation skills are a vital part of paramedic education and training (Sanders‚ 2007). Endotracheal (ET) intubation is a procedure by which a tube is inserted through the mouth down into the trachea where the patient is often unconscious at the time of the procedure. The endotracheal tube serves as an open passage through the upper airway and is considered to be the “gold standard” in the pre-hospital care setting for complete airway control.
