Human Cloning Surrogate Mother
1,762 wordsTwenty years from now, as you are walking around the square in Wilkes Barre, you pass someone who looks exactly like you. They have your same brown eyes, round face, light brown hair, short stature, and even the same dimples you possess. Can you imagine the shock and even fright that may accompany such a sighting? The world was bewildered when the news that an adult mammal was produced without any eggs being fertilized with sperm. The results of Dolly surprised society and the idea that human cl...

Oxygen And Carbon Dioxide Oxygen And Carbon Blood
374 wordsRespiratory gases-oxygen and carbon dioxide moves between air and blood in the lungs. The structure of the human lung provides immense internal surface that facilitates gas exchange between the alveoli and the blood in the pulmonary capillaries. Respiratory gases move between the environment and the respiring tissues by two principal mechanisms, convention and diffusion. Convention is responsible for movement of air from the environment into the lungs and also for the movement of the blood betwe...

Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer Human Cloning Research
2,325 wordsHuman cloning has become a hot topic for debate. As we progressed one step closer to successfully cloning and developing a human being, legislators and the general public have become more concerned about the ethical and moral implications of this procedure. The federal government has been unsuccessful in reaching an agreement as to what policy to pass and enact. Thus, any current legislation on human cloning has been developed and enforced by individual states. The state of California is one of ...

Nerve Impulses Emotional Pain
1,397 wordsEvery human being throughout history has felt pain sometime in his life. The moment a newborn leaves the womb, he is exposed to his first experiences of light and sound; which is painful compared to the cozy embryonic sac they have become accustomed to. Everyone in the world has felt disappointed or let down, which can also be painful. There are two major types of pain in the world; physical pain and emotional pain, which can be somewhat related at times, and independent of each other at other t...

Skin Cancer Ultraviolet Radiation
1,554 wordsSkin cancer is a disease that can affect any one. Skin cancer includes many types that can be classified as severe or superficial. Consequently, treatment of skin cancer depends on the degree of severity a person has. In the following paper, we will shed lights on the types of skin cancer and its causes. Finally, we will investigate how to treat the different types of cancer and how to avoid it. Skin cancer is a term used to describe cancer in skin tissues. The skin is made of several layers. Sk...

Risk Of Developing Breast Cancer
1,294 wordsINTRODUCTION Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women and the second leading cause of cancerous death. The incident of breast cancer has been increasing steadily from 1: 20 in 1960 to 1: 8 in women today. The American Cancer Society estimates that 211, 000 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed this year and 43, 000 patients will die from disease. It is a disfiguring and life threatening disease. Moreover, many women do not even know until it is too late that they have...

Human Cloning Stem Cells
789 wordsSince I am majored in biology, I will mainly talk about the topic of human cloning today. Four billion years ago, life arose on the earth. Four billion years later, human beings begin to look into the secrets hidden in the genes, which are the most delicate structure of life. A little over a year ago, scientists completed the Human Genome Project, which is one of the three most important advances in scientific history. Cloning is the major technique developed in the research of genes. To clone m...

Studies Have Shown Blood Vessels
1,197 wordsBiological regeneration has been studied over the years, in salamanders, and biological imitations of life. Through research on the mitotic capabilities of certain animals, to the DNA and hormones that make regeneration possible, scientists are slowly finding a way so that humans can regenerate lost or missing limbs, or grow organs used to save millions of lives in the future. Because being able to reproduce a limb or body part is dependent on nerves, scientists have found it vital to perform es...

Stem Cell Research Period Of Time
1,158 wordsOne of the most popular clinical studies being researched these days is stem cell transplantation. Until recently, moral issues of states and countries haven't allowed research to expound deeply into the unknowns. Within the last ten years though, scientists have made leaps and bounds in finding out concrete facts that this stem cell research has supplied. Tommy G. Thompson, Secretary of Health Services states, "I believe it will open up a world of opportunity for scientists, not only at the NIH...

Somatic Cell Therapy Germ Line Therapy
1,485 wordsScience is a creature that continues to evolve at a much higher rate than the beings that gave it birth. The transformation time from tree-shrew, to ape, to human far exceeds the time from analytical engine, to calculator, to computer. But science, in the past, has always remained distant. It has allowed for advances in production, transportation, and even entertainment, but never in history will science be able to so deeply affect our lives as genetic engineering will undoubtedly do. With the b...

They carry out their functions by evoking responses from specific organs or tissues that are adapted to react to minute quantities of them. The classical view of hormones is that they are transmitted to their targets in the bloodstream after discharge from the glands that secrete them. T...

Part Of The Body Massage Therapy
1,347 wordsMy discovery of massage therapy's healing powers resulted directly from trying to break a friends ribs. I was taking my first kickboxing class, and Hugh, a two-year veteran of the sport, encouraged me to try my roundhouse kick on him a bit faster and harder. Who could pass up such an invitation? Crouched down, I swelled my body and, with venom, kicked the punching bag he was holding. It felt good. Next I went for the kill, and connected so high and fast that I ripped my hip muscles. That was six...

Funk 038 Wagnalls Cancer Cells
1,572 wordsMitosis in cancerous cells Mitosis, the process in which a cell undergoes nuclear division, is one of the four subdivisions of the cell cycle responsible for cell growth and reproduction. The first step in mitosis is prophase. In prophase the chromatin, diffuse in interphase, condenses into chromosomes. Each chromosome duplicates and has become two sister chromatids. At the end of prophase, the nuclear envelope breaks down into vesicles. The following step in mitosis is metaphase. During metapha...
