Socio Theological Analysis Of Gardners Grendel
1,085 wordsSocio-theological analysis of Gardners Grendel In his novel Grendel, John Gardner presents readers with his own understanding of the essence of metaphysical conflict between ideologically motivated irrationality and evolutionary purposefulness, described in the original story of Beowulf. The character of Grendel can be thought of as the embodiment of existentialist values, which is why the line of his arguments appears to be very progressive. In fact, it might seem that Grendel's philosophy corr...

Therefore, it is almost impossible to be sure as to what exactly Plato had in his mind, while describing a situation of two prisoners being locked away in the cave and being forced to make judgments about objective reality by observing reality's shadows. However, given the political context of Plato's work, we can sugges...

Green House Effect Carbon Dioxide
1,108 wordsGLOBAL WARMING Dear grandpa, Do you aware that our grand children and great children may be the victim of global warming during the next century? In 1986, the Swedish chemist state Arrhenius first revealed the theory that carbon emissions from the burning of coal and other fossil fuels could generate a green house effect by trapping solar heat in the atmosphere leading to global warming. Electro magnetic energy emanating from the Sun is absorbed by the Earth, which radiates some of this energy o...

Red Blood Cells Vitamin B 12
1,112 wordsVitamin B 12 Vitamin B 12, scientifically known as coba lamin, has specific chemical structure and characteristics which qualify as a water-soluble vitamin. However, unlike the other water-soluble vitamins it is not disgorged quickly in the urine, but accumulates in the liver, kidney and other body tissues. Therefore, only after 5 or 6 years of B 12 insufficient diet the vitamin deficiency can be adequately distinguished. Vitamin B 12 serves as a methyl donor and cooperates with folic acid in pr...

Sugar Molecules Linked Aldehyde Or Ketone Group Monosaccharides
387 wordsThere are three principal kinds of carbohydrates and each are classified according to the number of sugar molecules they contain. Monosaccharides, such as ribose, glucose, and fructose, contain only one sugar molecule. Disaccharides consist of two sugar molecules linked covalently. Familiar examples are sucrose (table sugar), maltose (malt sugar), and lactose (milk sugar). Polysaccharides, such as cellulose and starch, contain many sugar molecules linked together. Monosaccharides are organic com...

Artificial Insemination Genetic Diversity
715 wordsGenetic Diversity In Agriculture Genetic variation is the raw material for the plant breeder, who must often select from primitive and wild plants, including wild species, in search of new genes. The appearance of new diseases, new pests, or new virulent forms of disease causing organisms makes it imperative that the plant be preserved, because it offers a potential for the presence of disease resistant genes not present in cultivated varieties. Also, there are demands for new characters for exa...

Attempts At Cell Fusion Attempts At Cell Cloning
445 wordsCloning is the production of one or more individual plants or animals that are genetically identical to another plant or animal. Nature is the greatest cloning agent. In about one of every 75 human conceptions, the fertilized ovum splits for some unknown reason and produces identical twins. Each has a genetic makeup identical to the other. Bacteria, yeast and other cells multiply rapidly; these methods make possible the production of many copies of a particular gene. The copies can then be isola...

Fertilized Egg Single Clones
241 wordsOf all the terms coined by scientists which have entered popular vocabulary, clone has become one of the more emotive.

No sex is involved in the production of clones, and since sex is the normal means by which new genetic material is introduced during procreation, clones have no choice but to have the same genes as their single parent. In the s...

Process Of Cloning Real Person
927 wordsA clone is a group of organisms that are genetically identical. Most clones result from asexual reproduction, a process in which a new organism develops from only one parent. The one process of cloning, called nuclear transfer, replaces the nucleus of an immature egg with a nucleus from another cell. Most of the work with clones is done from cultures. An embryo has about thirty or forty usable cells but a culture features an almost endless supply. When the nucleus has been inserted into the egg ...
