When faced with the two distinct species of salamander‚ one must ask what their common ancestor looked like and whether it primarily lived in ponds or streams. Previous studies have presumed that Ambystoma barbouri‚ the stream dwelling species‚ is divergent from Ambystoma texanum‚ the pond dwelling species (Kraus and Petranka‚ 1989). This assumption is based on knowledge of environmental changes and the geographic spread of each species. Since the end of the last Ice Age‚ the availability of pond

CRISPR is a revolutionary technique that edits genes‚ enabling humans to select desirable genetic traits. Although this idea of editing genes of human embryos may sound advantageous‚ editing genes can prove to be dangerous and can leads to dire consequences. Practicing CRISPR on human embryos can also violates the fundamental idea of civil rights. By implementing CRISPR and eliminating genes that we found unfavorable‚ we are essentially eliminating the diversity of the human gene pools and human

The military agency that turns dreams into reality‚ DARPA‚ is investing into building materials that will actually grow and repair themselves if they’re damaged. Like Wolverine from X-Men‚ but your roof after a hail storm. Let’s face it: going back and forth from hardware stores to fix crap that went wrong in your house is tiring.

Neuroscientists at Emory University found that genetic markers‚ thought to be wiped clean before birth‚ were used to transmit a single traumatic experience across generations‚ leaving behind traces in the behavior and anatomy of future pups. Studies that show how molecules act as DNA markers that influence how the genome is read are known as epigenetic. We pick up these markers during our lives and in various locations on our body as we develop and interact with our environment. Through a process

In most cloning cases‚ isolated genes or cells are cloned just for and only for scientific study and no new biological material or animals are crated. However‚ in 1997 an experiment was conducted and the result was the cloning of a sheep named Dolly. This process was different as it used a new technique of cloning known as somatic cell nuclear transfer. When the somatic cell nuclear transfer technique was first

Most of us agree that the course of life should be left up to Mother Nature‚ just the way it has been since the beggining of time; meanwhile‚ cloning may be seen as another advance in science research and technology. Indeed‚ many consider this matter as one of the biggest ethical concerns of the 21st century. We know that they have been trying it since the last century. But until now‚ it hasn’t succeeded. For example‚ the technique which produced Dolly (the sheep) was successful in only 1 of 277
