the controversial topic is human germline gene therapy and this type of therapy does not have a place in 2016. I am against germline gene therapy because it is too early for human research‚ we as the science community do not know enough about the process of how genes control phenotypic expression‚ and if the technology to edit germline cells would be leaked to the public it could create an entirely new social inequality. Before I go into depth as to why this new type of therapy does not belong‚ allow

Over there in Vietnam I learned to read people. I know what they’re going to do before they do it because I experience the same things over and over. After seeing the same movements before you get shot at or bombed‚ the same symptoms of the city and the people around you -- it’s like a fluid movement. Doors close‚ people disappear‚ and

Cellular Processes Lab # 9 Biology 2010 By‚ Jani Hagen U#74644799 November 21‚ 2014 Abstract All cells undergo cellular resperation to produce energy. Common sources of energy include glucose‚ fructose‚ sucrose‚ startch‚ and fatty acids. The process varies depending on the fuel the cell is using. This report will show these differences by exopsing the yeast to several different conditions. The rate of the fermentation can be tracked by noting the carbon dioxide production at steady intervals

regulated the same as regular foods. There are no regulations to date that have been determined that are specific to genetically engineered foods. 3. How do scientists put a gene from one organism into another? - The most common method is with an agrobacterium. Since bacteria reproduce quickly‚ it’s easy to create the same favorable gene many times over. The bacterium causes the plant to send it nutrients. They take one piece of the plant’s DNA and put the favorable DNA into the plant. 4

How china’s population has changed over time? China’s population is at once its greatest asset as well as its most significant challenge. This is as true today as the twenty-first century begins as it has been for much of China’s history.
