Prenatal screening Screening for Down syndrome is available to about 53.5% of mothers on a maternal age basis‚ and the remaining 46.5% of health boards provide serum screening for all ages. There are several methods used in prenatal screening‚ these are usually used separately‚ and a number of factors are taken into account to determine which method should be used. Amniocentesis has been around for 20 years and is probably the most well known screening method. It involves testing a sample of the

The Role of Phytochrome in Lettuce Seed Germination Abstract This experiment was performed to determine the role of phytochrome in lettuce seed germination. In order to conduct this experiment three different types of Grand Rapids lettuce seeds were chosen: Waldmann‚ Concept‚ and Two Star. Each of these seeds were exposed to the following regulated courses of light exposure for ten minutes after they had imbibed for five minutes: Red‚ White‚ Far Red‚ and Darkness. It was hypothesized that the

This pack of ECE 332 Week 2 Discussion Question 2 Complications at Birth consists of: Chapter Four of the text focuses on the birth process and newborn stage of life. For this discussion question‚ select two complications that may occur at birth (preterm‚ oxygen deprivation‚ etc.) and review the developmental outlook for infants born under such circumstances. Describe interventions that may support a more positive developmental outcome. Research and describe at least two community agencies that might

Stem Cells Stem Cells are fundamentally cell templates. These cell templates are used to create all the cells in our body. Stem cells under the right circumstances are manipulated into other cells‚ such as mussel cells and liver cells. The thing that makes stem cells so useful is that not only can they become almost any cell in your body but they also have the special characteristics to be able to self re-new or multiplying while still keeping the potential to become useful cells for our body

Factors and Hazards of Infant Development Pregnancy is a very momentous occasion in a woman’s life. I have yet to experience the miracle of being pregnant‚ but I could only imagine the various thoughts and emotions that run through a mother-to-be’s head. In the midst of all the excitement that comes with planning for a new baby‚ parents tend to forget how important maternal health is for prenatal development; The three factors or hazards I feel that are the most important for parents to understand

Klodiana Kazazi March 19th‚ 2013 Biology 1300/24 Tues & Thurs 6-9pm Introduction Seed germination and growth are influenced by many factors. Some of these are the environment‚ light quality and moisture availability. Other factors which may influence seed germination are a result of the environment surrounding the seed‚ like alleleopathy. In this experiment we are going to study the alleleopathy

To use any sort of substance while trying to become pregnant is absurd. Timing is everything during development and even prior to testing positively for pregnancy. A very large and essential part of prenatal care is the avoidance of teratogens. As we proceed I will mention the affects teratogens have on prenatal development‚ why the alcohol consumption should be reduced completely‚ and I will define what a teratogen actually is. Teratogen is a word used to describe behaviors‚ environments‚

Bioassay of Radish Seeds Bioassay is a type of scientific experiment used in the development of new drugs and monitoring pollutants. It estimates the potency of a substance‚ by testing its effect on living matter. In other words‚ it determines how much of the substance is needed to poison an individual‚ without testing it on any humans or animals. From here the TC50 of the substance can be adjusted for dealing with humans and animals over plants. In this lab we attempted to find the potency of

Seed Lab I. Purpose/Question: A. What is the variable you are testing? Radish seed vs. Pea seed B. Question 1: How does seed type affect when the seeds germinate? C. Question 2: How does seed type affect the length of the stem? II. Research: List two pieces of information you learned about the variable you are testing below. The radish stem was longer. Both seeds germinated equally fast. III. Hypothesis: Make these an “If-then” statement and do not use pronouns (I‚ we‚ he‚
