of micro-organisms that are in the human digestive system. Article of choice‚ (Adnan‚ 2010) Benefits of Microorganisms to Humans‚ Retrieved February 8‚ 2013. This article was of interest because there are many bacteria that we encounter in our daily lives and it was informative to know that all bacteria is not bad. In fact‚ there needs to be a balance between the two and by educating yourself with the smallest amount of new information is very helpful. Humans rely on micro-organisms for a variety

A Genetically Modified Organism is an organism whose inherited matter has been altered using heritable engineering techniques. It is basically a special set of technologies that alter the genetic makeups in organisms that vary‚ such as plants‚ animals‚ or bacteria. Combining genes from different species is known as recombinant DNA technology‚ and the outcome organism is known as genetically modified. Now the question lies‚ is genetically modified organisms needed to suppress hunger? In my opinion

Transport System of Organisms Problems faced by Multicellular Organisms: a)Big size-the total surface area to volume (TSA/V) is decreased . Rate of diffusion of substances into and out of all body cells is low. b)Cells are often located far away from the external surface of the body. How multicellular organism overcome these problem? a)Have specialized structure to increase the surface area for the exchange of respiration gases. b)Have transport system to get gases respiration in and

synthesizing the DNA‚ and then inserting this construct into the host organism. Genes may be removed‚ or "knocked out"‚ using a nuclease. Gene targeting is a different technique that uses homologous recombination to change an endogenous gene‚ and can be used to delete a gene‚ remove exons‚ add a gene‚ or introduce point mutations. An organism that is generated through genetic engineering is considered to be a genetically modified organism (GMO). The first GMOs were bacteria in 1973; GM mice were generated

A Report of Experiment 1 Purification and Identification of An Unknown Mixture Aim To separate a mixture of a neutral (ester‚ alcohol‚ ketone‚ aldehyde or ether) and an acidic compound (phenol or carboxylic acid) or a neutral and a basic compound (amine)‚ and to identify the unknown mixture by physical (M.P. or B.P.) and spectroscopic methods (NMR‚ IR and MS). Method The mixture (sample number: 27) was dissolved in 200 mL of CH2Cl2 and then extracted with 10% NaOH. The acid was removed

Research how humans interact with micro-organisms and use this information to write a discussion for your report. Basic structure and function Explain the parts and how they work for fungi and bacteria Most fungal species are multicellular. Most fungi do not have flagella in any phase of their life cycle. They move toward food by growing toward it. The main body of most fungi is made up of fine‚ branching‚ and usually colourless threads called hyphae. Each fungus will have vast numbers

Genetic Modify Organisms Genetic Engineering Today many scientist use “genetic engineering” a new technology that manipulates the genes of many plants‚ bacteria and animals. This organisms are called genetic modified organism (GMOs) because their genetic material (DNA) has been changed in a way that it doesn’t occur naturally‚ it alters the organism’s genetic material through adding‚ deleting or changing the segments in the DNA. This technology is also referred to as "biotechnology" or "recombinant

What is a genetically modified organism? A genetically modified organism (GMO) is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using techniques in genetics generally known as recombinant DNA technology. Viruses‚ bacteria‚ fungi‚ plants‚ and animals are all examples of organisms that have been engineered so that they contain genes from at least on unrelated organism. To create a genetically modified organism a molecule from a different source are combined into another molecule to create

Do you really know what is in the foods you eat? Most likely not. You probably have never heard of the words genetically modified organisms. It is time to open your eyes to this silent problem that is occurring right now. Genetically modified organisms are in the foods we eat and are ultimately making people sick. Research has shown that consuming genetically modified foods increases your risk for getting cancers and tumors. The only way to avoid it is to eat organic which is not always affordable
