Claire Kerns Bio Per.1 2-13-13 Cancer reflection Is cancer a disease due to genetics or environment? Cancer is a disease both caused by genetics and environmental factors. Each person has either proto-oncogenes or oncogenes. These are the genes that are responsible for regulating cell division. When a person has an oncogene it is a mutation of a proto-oncogene. The oncogene (dominant gene) tells the cell to continuously divide. This can be a problem if the cell is cancerous. Cancer cells

MOLECULAR DETECTION OF FUNGAL DISEASES INTRODUCTION With the rise of many new diseases caused due to viruses‚ bacteria and fungi; it is essential for the rapid detection of such diseases. The severity of such diseases can be reduced by its rapid detection carried out by different methods. The conventional methods may include the idea of just identifying the disease symptoms‚ identification of these pathogens in the laboratory by different morphological and biochemical tests‚ etc [1]. The conventional

The glycolysis pathway is nearly universal in biological systems. Glycolysis is the sequence of reactions that converts glucose to pyruvate with the concomitant formation of ATP. Three fates of this pyruvate produced exist. In this practical the production of pyruvate and acetaldehyde by fermentation of glucose is established. A series of test tubes was set up each containing glucose and yeast suspension in buffers at different pH values. These test tubes were incubated for an hour at 37℃. Trichloro-acetic

In this essay‚ it will be discussed how the Kinetic Molecular Theory explains many gas law specifically Boyle’s gas law‚ Charles’ gas law‚ and Avogadro’s gas law. To understand what will be talked about is to first know what the Kinetic Molecular Theory is. In our textbook is says it is “A simple model for gases that predicts the behavior of most gases under many conditions.” First off‚ we will take a look at Boyle’s Law. As stated in our lab manual “at constant temperature the pressure which a given

Investigating the Ratio Between Poly-Vinyl Alcohol and Sodium Borate to form a Bouncing Ball Timothy English Gen. Chem. 1 Lab Section: 009 Introduction: Poly-Vinyl Alcohol (PVA) is a water-soluble synthetic polymer that will be used as one element to form the well know bouncing ball‚ along with Sodium Borate (borax)‚ which has a variety of uses because of its weak base. PVA is ideal for this experiment because it is odorless‚ nontoxic‚ has high tensile strength and flexibility. The

The Largest Ethnic Minority in Turkey The height of the Ottoman Empire spanned between three continents controlling much of Southeastern Europe‚ Western Asia and North Africa. The fall of the Ottoman Empire can be attributed to the failure of its economic structure‚ with the size of the empire creating difficulties integrating its diverse regions economically. The Treaty of Sèvres was the peace treaty between the Ottoman Empire and Allies at the end of World War I which divided the empire in to
