1. Define genotype and phenotype‚ and describe how they are related. Genotype is the genetic make-up‚ the inheritable information‚ which comprises an individual organism. It is the code that is copied in reproduction and is passed from 1 generation to the next. It serves as the main guide in the growth‚ development and maintenance of a living organism; it also controls the formation of certain proteins and regulation of metabolism and synthesis. Alleles are alternative forms of a gene and genotype

Are Fingerprint Patterns Inherited As one of the many fields of forensic science that can benefit from additional research‚ fingerprint identification is probably the most deserving. Within recent years‚ many print examiners have been questioned in both professional and social situations as to whether fingerprint evidence should be considered scientific. This questioning caused latent print examiners to realize the pressing need for various types of ongoing research on the subject of fingerprints

In Act II‚ scene VII‚ of the play As You Like It‚ a disheartened Jacques takes a long look at life: All the worlds a stage‚ and all the men and women‚ merely players; They have their exits and their entrances‚ and one man in his time plays many parts(1-4) It is a line that is as simplistic as it is complicated‚ comparing the cycle of life to that of a play. This quote‚ pulled from the play As You Like it‚ a pastoral comedy by William Shakespeare

Pulmonary fibrosis is the formation or development of excess fibrous connective tissue in the lungs. Pulmonary fibrosis is one of a family of related diseases called interstitial lung diseases. All of these diseases can result in lung scarring. (Ebina M 2010) "Fibrosis" is a term used to refer to scarring‚ so pulmonary fibrosis means scarring throughout the lungs. In some people‚ chronic pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis develop without an identifiable cause. Most of these people have a condition

Cystic fibrosis is a life – shortening inherited disorder that affects the way in which salt and water move into and out of the body’s cells. It effects mostly the lungs and the digestive system; where thick mucus blocks the small tubes and ducts of the pancreas. (Orenstein) The classic triad of exocrine abnormalities are pancreatic insufficiency‚ chronic recurrent pulmonary infections and an elevated sweat electrolyte concentration. At birth the pancreas shows signs of disease and the lungs appear

If I inherited RM1 million from a distant relative‚ then my life would take a dramatic turn from what it is now. I would adopt the lifestyle of the rich and famous. There are lots of things I would do with the money. Firstly‚ before I use the money at all‚ I would give away ten percent to charity. Ten percent of RM1 million works out to RM100‚000. This is a lot of money to give away. It does not mean that I am a generous or saintly person. It simply means that when we get good luck‚ we must thank

The features of this syndrome vary widely‚ even among affected members
