DNA is a tool of great use throughout the world. Especially when it comes to the field of forensic science‚ DNA is the most important tool of all. What is DNA? DNA‚ short for deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is a group of molecules that hereditary information in which guides development and functioning throughout the body. “DNA is to justice as a telescope is to the stars; not a lesson in biochemistry‚ not a display of the wonders of magnifying glass‚ but a way to see things as they really are.”(Barry Scheck

Interactions between farmed and wild fish An overview 2 1 Unique challenges in fish • New species are domesticated at a much more rapid speed – both in numbers and efficiency than ever before in history • Difficult (or impossible) to avoid escapees • When escaped – large areas can be influenced • Often introduction to new areas • Number of individuals farmed can be much larger than in wild population 3 4 2 Two important misconceptions regarding selection 1. That artificial

Unit 5 Describe the two process by which hormones can cause certain genes to be turned on. (4) Any 2 from: - A hormone binds to a receptor in the cell surface membrane - Idea of the receptor causing (chemical) changes inside the cell - A (functional) {second messenger} activates an {enzyme/transcription factor/eq} Any 2 from: - Idea of a hormone entering the cell through the cell membrane - The hormone binds to a receptor - The {hormone-receptor complex/eq} acts as a transcription factor

1. INTRODUCTION Forensic science is the application of scientific procedures to help solve criminal and legal matters. At the scene of any crime a variety of physical evidence may be left behind that can link a criminal to a crime‚ or help reconstruct the sequence of events which occurred during that crime. Forensic biologists examine articles and crime scenes for evidence of biological material and attempt to determine the origin of that material by using tests that provides biologically discrimination

DNA is a double helix molecule that contains information that is used to make up a person’s body. DNA controls every aspect of a person’s body from their eye and hair color‚ height‚ and other features. DNA’s specific and unique characteristic can be crucial when solving a crime. DNA can be used to convict a suspect or exonerate an innocent person. When DNA is found it is even more important that is handle properly to ensure proper identification and accuracy of testing. The evolution of DNA technology

The Evaluation of five Websites about Cloning based on their Credibility and support by peer-reviewed Articles Introduction Ever since the birth of the first cloned sheep‚ named Dolly‚ the dream of human cloning has existed (Van Dijck‚ 1999). Cloning a mammal is described as the manipulation of an animal or human cell in order to create an identical copy of that animal’s or human’s nucleic DNA (Andrews‚ 1997). Though the dream of a human clone also comes with a lot of controversy regarding ethics

DNA Profiling and Ethics Reflection Journal Vanshika Khemka 14th October 2012 "33 autorad off" On 10th September 1984‚ geneticist Alec Jeffrey’s wrote these three words in his red desk diary. This marked the completion of an experiment‚ which studied how inherited illnesses pass through families. The experiment failed entirely. (McKie‚ 2009) However‚ this led to the most profound discovery: the world’s first DNA fingerprint. Now‚ the smallest swab of blood or sweat can determine
