In regards to Cellular Respiration

a) oxygen molecules that are going to take part in electron transport
b) molecules that prevent people from getting developing certain diseases and showing signs of aging
c) reactive, negatively charged oxygen molecules produced by the mitochondria that can damage DNA and cells
d) molecules that are produced as a by-product of glycolysis and fermentation

I know that bio-pharmaceutical science would be perfect for taking part in research to find cures for diseases and such (genomic – genes and proteins), which I am totally interested in. But I would like to also have the option of working in a pharmacy then maybe later switching to research labs.
Which program am I better off taking ?

1.)the_______is upper chamber of the heart? the _______ is the lower chamber?

2.)what des dna stand for?

3.)the scientist responsible fo fighting diseases of polio and smallpox by creating a vaccine aggainst these diseases were_________ and ___________

4.)the genetic makeup of an organism is it’s ________ while the physycal appearance of the organism is it’s __________

5.)more diverse, diffrent organisms (diffrent fro their parents) are a result of _____________

thank you if you helped and i will pick a best answer

to amass and maintain a database of blood, DNA, and other biological information about its citizens, and then it will use all of these blood samples to manufacture various biological diseases to exterminate people based on race and other characteristics?

What have scientists discovered about the human genome?
A. Humans have about 120,000 genes
B. Most human DNA is noncoding
C. Humans are 50% related to each other.
D. Human genes are not similar to those of other animals.

24. What role does electrophoresis play in identifying a specific gene?
A. It cuts the gene of interest out of DNA at specific points.
B. It kills all cells that have not taken up the gene of interest.
C. It binds the gene of interest with probes.
D. It separates DNA fragments by size.

25. The risk associated with traditional vaccines prepared from disease-causing agents is that
A. one may get the actual disease.
B. the antibodies that result may not work.
C. the vaccine protects only against other diseases.
D. unknown diseases may be created.

Okay, can somebody tell me if I am correct?

Adult stem cells are cells found in any human being. They can be found in various tissues. When cloning these cells, you can only replicated it to be the same cell. So, if it was a skin cell, it could only turn into another skin cell. Sometimes a body doesn’t accept these cloned cells, though.

Alright, and then the embryonic cells.
they are an embryo that is taken from a mother’s womb. They can be used with any sort of tissue, and will be a custom fit with any body.

Am I right?
If not, somebody please explain the difference.
Also, why would somebody use an adult cell over the embryonic cell, and vice versa?

How do the embryonic cells fight diseases?

your answers are greatly appreciated.

I am planning to include the most popular cystic fibrosis, but other than that …i should include at least 2 other diseases that use adenovirus are a vector in gene therapy. I wanted something less common ….maybe not monogenetic diseases as CF is already one. Anyone has any suggestions of what kind of interesting disease i can include??

To date germ line therapy has been carried out on animal eggs, sperm and embryos but at present it is illegal to do this on humans.
It is however possible to modify the faulty genes in the cells of a grown child or an adult to cure diseases like cystic fibrosis. This is called body cell gene therapy.

Why is it illegal when we are allowed to do body cell gene therapy? Is gene line therapy dangerous?

STRANDSTROM et al have observed that 50% of normal and sick dogs sera reacted with one or more recombinant proteins of the Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV). By using HIV 1 and Human T lymphotropic virus (HTLV) I and II commercial Western Blot (WB), we have studied 30 dogs sera with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and 19 of dogs with lymphoma. Nine normal dogs are tested as control. For HIV 1 WB, none of the 49 sera collected in dogs with diseases and of the 9 normal sera is reactive. On the other hand, for HTLV I/II WB, 5 sera of SLE dogs and one serum of a dog with lymphoma are reactive. Three SLE sera give a P24 band only and the two other SLE sera a P42 band only. The serum of the dog with lymphoma is reactive with 3 proteins (rgP21, P24 and P42). Our results are not similar with those obtained by STRANDSTROM et al despite the used HIV antigens are equivalent. A significantly number of sera (10.2%) is reactive in the HTLV I/II WB. The hypothesis of a retroviral agent in dog’s species may be evoked.

IF DOGS HAVE HIV PROTEIN IN THEM DOES THAT MEAN THEY CAN TRANSMITT HIV TO HUMANS ?

Scientists are figuring out stuff like human cloning, stem cell research, and genetic modification. Maybe it’s possible to make babies custom made? You can weed out all the diseases and make the baby nice and strong and smart with blue eyes, blond hair, and pale skinned. Maybe they can make melanin that has no pigmentation so Caucasians can be safe from the UV rays but still look Caucasian.

What do you think our future holds for us?
