The geographical advantages the europeans had was the farming with wheat‚ wheat gave them a food surplus‚ and domesticated animals. Eurasia were more resistant to illness and they could make steel.This all helped the europeans with civilizations and conquering other countries and the Spanish were more powerful. Civilizations is affected by the climate and the climate affects your food surplus. The Fertile

In making our crops pest resistant there are less crop losses and it also helps in elimination of having to apply chemical pesticides. Crops that contain GMO’s can also be engineered to be resistant to certain herbicides with helps in preventing environmental damage by reducing the amount of herbicides needed. As far as GMO’s in

Bacterial Evolution In the late 19th century‚ diseases led researchers to find treatments to kill the growth of microbes. The outcome of the search was a new kind of medicine which is known as antibiotics. Antibiotics is a variety of substances that control the growth or kill bacteria. Since bacteria is evolving rapidly and resisting antibiotics due to the overuse of the medicine‚ reducing the need and use would help slow down the bacteria from evolving. There are many things that can be done

to take in foreign DNA and replicate (or copy) it. This gives them an evolutionary advantage and helps them survive changes in their environment. For example‚ bacteria can acquire DNA that makes them resistant to antibiotics.” This seems good until we see that bacteria has started to become resistant to antibiotics‚as stated above. The increased genetic variety has caused a lot of problems in the medical world and with medicine. Bacteria are always seeming to evolve and the quick evolution of bacteria

Abstract- Due to increase in the incidences of drug resistant pathogens‚ there is a need for the development of alternative drugs against which the microorganisms will not be able to develop resistance. The most promising candidates to be developed as alternative drugs are the antimicrobial peptides. In the present study the antimicrobial peptide Microcin C7 was docked with the catalytic domain of Diphtheria toxin and further the simulational studies were performed to find the stability of the complex

In the first part of this lab‚ E.coli cells were transformed with an R-plasmid carrying a tetracycline resistant gene‚ giving rise to tetracycline resistant E.coli strain. This was accomplished through transformation‚ which allowed E.coli to directly uptake the naked DNA molecule carrying the antibiotic resistant gene (1). However‚ in order to take up the DNA and incorporate them into their genome via recombination‚ cells must be competent (1). Therefore‚ E.coli cells which are not competent under

Reproductive Disorders Case Study The patient is a twenty-three-year-old female with the chief complaint of severe hypogastric pain (pain of the lower abdomen) and emesis (vomiting). Medical history includes a diagnosis of gonorrhea last year‚ and her partner tested positive for N. gonorrhoeae (Neisseria gonorrhoeae) just hours ago. The patient’s cervical smear results are positive for N. gonorrhoeae and other bacteria. Manifestation of gonorrhea in men and women In both men and women gonorrhea

When we first checked our agar dish on February 15‚ 2010 we noticed two circles for the zone of inhibition the small circle was 1.5 cm and the medium circle was 3.00 cm. Two days later when we checked

Resistance and Sexual Health: A Rising Crisis in Low-Income Regions Antibiotic resistance poses a significant threat to global health‚ particularly in the realm of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). This article will explore the impact of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ABR) on sexual health‚ focusing on gonorrhoea as a prime example‚ and discuss the challenges and potential solutions to this growing crisis (1). In the world of STIs‚ Gonorrhoea has emerged as a formidable opponent in the face of growing

Genetically modified crops (GMCs‚ GM crops‚ or biotech crops) are plants‚ the DNA of which has been modified using genetic engineering techniques. In most cases the aim is to introduce a new trait to the plant which does not occur naturally in the species. Examples include resistance to certain pests‚ diseases‚ or environmental conditions‚ or resistance to chemical treatments (e.g. resistance to a herbicide)‚ or the production of a certain nutrient or pharmaceutical agent.
