Tutorial #3 1. The discovery of the cell occurred in 1665. The cell has made great progress in the discovery of how humans and other organisms work. 2. The discovery of genetic material in DNA occurred in 1865. This allowed us to determine different traits in mammals. As well as how we can determine different traits‚ and the percent chance of obtaining these traits. 3. In 1885 the cell culture technique was first developed. This allows us to view cells outside of their environment

“Each year‚ on average‚ 5 percent to percent of the US population gets the flue each year.” (CDC Foundation). The organism I chose is Haemophilus Influenzae‚ and the disease that comes from this organism is Influenza. Transmission of this disease is very simple. There are many different diseases that can come with complications of Influenza. The treatments are simple and do not cost much. The prognosis is pretty good for most people. Influenza is a disease that can either be a okay disease to deal

Genetic Modified Food " Genetic modification exists by changing an organismʼs DNA under a genetical engineering responsibility. In order to create new resistant flavored food‚ genetic modification may be used. However‚ this contemporary method hasʼt been tested sufficiently. Lack of experiment causes argues all over the world. Not to put environmental health‚ which is the necessary for all beings‚ at risk‚ genetic modification should be banned. " Firstly‚ letʼs have a look at safety of GM

Haemophilus influenza By Crystal Wade BL 202 A Dr. Kokan 11/10/2012 Haemophilus influenza is a gram negative rod shaped bacterium; it is a member of the pasteurellaceae family. It is aerobic but it can grow as a facultative anaerobe. From 1852 to 1933 H. influenza was thought to be the cause of influenza until its etiology was done and they discovered that it was really bacterial influenza that caused it. H. influenza does cause many other diseases. It states on Wikipedia that “H. influenza

There is a continuous debate about whether viruses are alive or not. Viruses are what makes you sick such as Influenza‚ Ebola‚ HIV‚ Mumps‚ and the common cold. Some scientists argue that viruses are not alive. Yet‚ there have been some new studies that show that viruses may in fact be alive. After finding out the facts‚ you can decide if viruses are living. Many scientists are more willing to accept the theory that viruses are not alive. The main piece of evidence that supports this theory is that

As the strain continued to get worse and worse‚ people throughout the entire United States continue to panic. The United States government has to try to find a way to calm America down. As a news forecast comes onto the television‚ everybody watches in great relief to hear that the strain has been contained and everything is alright. A week later‚ the death toll continues to rise but people were not putting it together that the Andromeda has not actually been contained and it is still harming

In a natural population‚ there are a number of species with similar characteristics‚ though variation is still apparent in the population. This gives certain individuals advantages over others in its population. Adding a different species into that population with more favourable characteristics will ruin the chances of survival for the natural population. An example of this is the transgenic species and the impact they can have on genetic diversity. A transgenic specie or a transgene is basically

Reye Syndrome Reye Syndrome is an extremely rare‚ non-contagious disease thought to be triggered by aspirin use. The actual origin of the disease is unknown. Reye’s Syndrome‚ occasionally called Reye-Jacobsen’s Syndrome‚ is known to follow any viral infection. Two of the most common viral infections it precedes is influenza‚ "the flu"‚ and chicken pox. A now-familiar warning on bottles of aspirin‚ most notably Tylenol‚ is not to give Tylenol to a child who is recovering from the chicken

Chris Brunelle Biology 112-online Professor Gaskin September 10‚ 2014 Minimal Organism “A minimal genome is generally defined as the smallest set of genes that allows for replication of the organism in a particular environment (Cho‚ M.‚ 1999). The creation of these minimal genomes can be helpful and harmful at the same time. There are many opinions out there about the subject‚ I will share some of those and my position on the subject. First let me just start with my personal position on minimal

Biological weapons are living organisms‚ whatever their nature‚ or the materials that are created because of their use. Biological weapons can cause disease or death in living organisms‚ and are depended upon for their further ability to multiply inside the organism that it attacks. Chemical weapons are defined as chemical substances of gas‚ liquid‚ or solid which are used because of a directly toxic effect upon humans‚ animals‚ or plants. Even though the two weapons are closely related‚ chemical
