by Obiebi Enifome Sonia INTRODUCTION Snakes are elongated‚ legless‚ carnivorous reptiles of the suborder serpents that can be distinguished from legless lizards by their lack of eyelids and external ears. It is commonly believed that all snakes are venomous but that is an erroneous believes. Of all the 2700 known species of snakes only 300 are venomous. Most species are non venomous and those that have venom use it primarily to kill and subdue prey rather than for self defense. Some posses venom

A&P 2 Gluten Sensitivity Prevalence and Validity Gluten sensitivity is clearly recognized in the context of celiac disease and wheat allergy. Recently however‚ a prevalence of complaints of symptoms (inflammation‚ joint pain‚ bloating‚ fogginess‚ etc..) in response to ingesting "gluten‚" raises new questions in the research and validity of Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS.) For years‚ I have personally

Cancer Epidemiology Cancer is not a single disease; it is a myriad or collection of diseases with many different manifestations as there are many different types of tissues and cell types Cancer is a disease of abnormal gene expression. Cells are constantly evolving and have the natural selection pressures to change Common biological properties of tumor cells: 1) Deregulated clonal cell growth- all cells in a tumor originated from one single cell that acquired mutations that made it deregulated

Which of the following is most likely to occur when a tumor-suppressor gene is mutated? - The tumor-suppressor gene and resulting protein may lose its function and ability to suppress cell proliferation. Mutations can produce a polypeptide with increased function. - TRUE ________can convert proto-oncogenes into oncogenes. - Nonsense mutations Most human embryos that are aneuploidy - are spontaneously aborted in the first trimester. Horses and donkeys are closely related species that can

INTRODUCTION : Human “PKNOX” gene is a homeobox gene (1)‚ belongs to the homeobox gene family‚ involved in the regulation of development of animals. It is also known as “PREP”. They play important roles in different steps of body pattern formation during early embryogenesis of animals. Homeobox genes are generally highly conserved and control similar phenotypic characters among distantly related organisms (2). However‚ they are also responsible for controlling different phenotypic characters
