Evolution of Sickle Cell Sickle Cell was discovered in the United states although it originated in Africa . The sickle cell disease (SCD) describes traits of an inherited red blood cell disorder‚ having SCD means you have abnormal hemoglobin‚ called hemoglobin S or sickle hemoglobin‚ in your red blood cells. What is hemoglobin u might ask?! Well Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that is suppose to carry oxygen throughout the body. But when a sickle cell trait is “Inherited” it could

The question of whether cell phones should be allowed in schools has been hotly debated over the years. The reality is‚ bans on cell phones are hard for schools to enforce. A 2010 Pew Internet & American Life Project study found that 65 percent of cell-owning teens at schools that completely ban phones bring their phones to school every day anyway. Most schools now allow students to have cell phones but try to require them to be turned off during class because they can be disruptive and distracting

The Cell Cycle Mitosis: the process by which cells reproduce themselves‚ resulting in daughter cells that contain the same amount of genetic material as the parent cell. Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Cell Division Occurs in a series of stages of phases Interphase occurs before mitosis begins Chromosomes are copied (# doubles) Chromosomes appear as threadlike coils (chromatin) at the start‚ but each chromosome and its copy(sister chromosome) change to sister

The Xylem is part of a plant‚ which is a hollow tube with spiral thickening of lignin around the wall giving strength‚ which is continuous throughout the whole plant. The difference between the Xylem cell and other cells is that the Xylem is dead and has no cytoplasm. The Xylem is responsible for transporting water and certain nutrients form root to plant. Phloem carries soluble organic material i.e. food for the plant. The top of the plant is in the light‚ conducting photosynthesis and helping the

Weismann‚ who noted that two cell divisions were necessary to transform one diploid cell into four haploid cells if the number of chromosomes had to be maintained. In 1911 the American geneticist Thomas Hunt Morgan observed crossover in Drosophila melanogaster meiosis and provided the first genetic evidence that genes are transmitted on chromosomes. The term meiosis was introduced to biology by J.B. Farmer and J.E.S. Moore in 1905 Meiosis i/maɪˈoʊsɨs/ is a special type of cell division necessary for

Phospholipids layer- 2 layers ‚ polar and non polar ‚ polar facing the extracellular fluid and cytoplasm 2. Transmembrane proteins-integral membrane proteins are proteins that expand the membrane 3. Interior protein network-peripheral proteins are in the interior side of the membrane 4. Cell surface markers are glycolipids‚ carbohydrates/lipid

The prokaryotic cell precedes any forms of Bacteria‚ Archaea‚ and eventually Eukaryotes by approximately two billion years. This cell was the original life form on the planet and represents the smallest and least complex of all organisms. Through the process of mutation and adaptation they were able to survive to evolve into our modern day Bacteria‚ Archaea‚ Fungi and Protists. These post organisms have benefited from their early ancestor‚ by way of Endosymbiosis. Intricate protest and fungi are

Cell Phone and Social Graces Have you ever talk to someone and they did not reply because they are busy playing on their cell phone? We all have that experience. We cannot blame on the cell phone because people are responsible for their behavior. In the essay “ Cell phone and social graces”‚ Charles Fisher elaborates on the use of cell phone and shows how careless‚ sometimes inconsiderate‚ and needy most people are when using their cell phones. Charles Fisher pointed out the negative when people

TITLE: Why Banning Cell Phones while Driving Should be Mandatory Nationwide A. To persuade people not to use their phones while driving B. That we should ban phone usage while driving and make it Nationwide C. Cell phones are very common now a day. Everyone have one from young to old. They can be very useful until we get behind the wheel and try to use it the same time you are diving. So banning cell phone usage a nationwide thing should be a good thing. I. The numbers are steady rising of
