Tay Sachs Disease Sickle Cell Disease
663 wordsEach year a number of children are born with biological defects that impair normal function. For THREE of the following conditions, discuss such aspects as the biological cause, the methods of treatment and possible means of detection and / or prevention. One lethal disorder inherited as a recessive allele is Tay-Sachs disease. This is caused by a dysfunctional enzyme that fails to break down brain lipids of a certain class. The symptoms usually become manifest a few months after birth. Some sym...

Walks Of Life Molecular Biology
1,308 wordsWhat is biochemistry? Biochemistry is the 'Chemistry of Life' It is central to all areas of the Biological or Life Sciences. The aim is to provide an understanding of every aspect of the structure and function of living things at the molecular level. It is a practical laboratory science that applies the molecular approaches of chemistry to the vast variety of biological systems. Biochemists work at all levels and with all types of biological organisms, ranging from biomolecules to man. There are...

Quality Of Life Industrial Revolution
932 wordsThe first statements devoted to the industrial revolution in England which lead to the changing the productive capacity. This revolution has accomplished so much in so little time. The past two centuries confirms that technology its not only tools. In 1762 Matthew Boulton built a factory and installed a steam engine to supplement power from two large waterwheels, which ran a variety of lathes and polishing and grinding machines. In Staffordshire an industry developed which gave the world good ch...

Genetically Engineered Restriction Enzymes
2,958 wordsGenetic Engineering Discuss the applications and techniques involved in genetic engineering. Consider the advantages and disadvantages of this approach. Genetic engineering is an umbrella term that can cover a wide range of ways of changing the genetic material the DNA code in a living organism. This code contains all the information, stored in a long chain chemical molecule, which determines the nature of the organism. Apart from identical twins, genetic make-up is unique to each individual. In...

Test Animals Molecular Level
1,041 wordsHerpetological Neurotoxins A herpetological neurotoxin, more commonly known as snake venom, is essentially modified saliva. It s primary functions are to slow down (or kill depending on the potency of the venom) the prey of the snake, and to help in the early stages of digestion. Three types of venomous snake: Opisthoglyphs, Proteroglyphs, andSolenoglyphs; and many types of snake venom: hemotoxic and neurotoxic venoms are some of those that will be discussed in this paper. The first type of veno...
