_____________________________________________________________________________ Agarose is a polymeric cross-linked polysaccharide extracted from the seaweed agar. Agarose is used widely in gel electrophoresis because it gels at a lower temperature‚ does not contain the inhibitors of virus growth frequently present in agar‚ and has more uniform pore size than that of agar. It is also easily poured and does not denature the samples. In agarose gel electrophoresis‚ DNA or RNA fragments are separated or isolated according

How does the plate tectonics theory help explain the existence of fossilized marine life in rocks atop the Ural Mountains? Be sure to include a description of the specific process(es).’ Continental Collisions would be a possibility as this would birth mountain building. It is a theory that Europe and Asia collided millions of years ago. Marine life would have existed in the ocean basin between the land masses. As the continents approached‚ waters would recede from between them through subduction

Yannelly De Leon General Intent vs. Specific Intent “Intent: A determination to perform a particular act or to act in a particular manner for a specific reason; an aim or design; a resolution to use a certain means to reach an end.” [1] The difference between General Intent vs. Specific Intent is when the defendant commits a crime with a specific end in mind and general intent is when a defendant commits a crime with no specific result in mind. General intent crime includes but is not limited

Penicillin Changed the World Imagine life without antibiotics‚ people dying of a whooping cough‚ a minor wound or even a simple infection. Until the accidental discovery of penicillin by Alexander Flemming‚ life was like this. The positive effects for the discovery of penicillin were the many medical advancements made both therapeutically and medicinally. Economically‚ people were living longer lives and populations were growing more rapidly. Socially‚ people were able to interact without risking

Unit 2 Assignment Critical Thinking 1. Explain why‚ even under ideal conditions‚ Streptococcus grows slowly. Cellular respiration is a process in which glucose is broken down to form an energy that can be used by the cell. There is aerobic respiration and there is anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration involves a series of chemical reactions in which oxygen is used to transform into carbon dioxide and H2O. This process generates energy carrying molecules called ATP. Anaerobic respiration

Sarah Burns Evolution of Plague Bacteria The Bubonic Plague otherwise known as the Black Death‚ has gotten most of its attention from medieval paintings‚ poetry‚ and journals of revulsion. The real horror‚ was the disturbing biological evidence of the bacteria that caused all the pandemics‚ known as Yersinia pestis. The pathogen got its name from the two investigators Yersin and Kitasato. In 1894‚ Yersin was known as the main investigator (ergo. Named after him)‚ he claimed that the mice/rats were

Plate tectonic is a scientific theory of Earth Science which basically defines the large scale motions of the atmosphere of the Earth. The Plate Tectonic theory is based on the continental drift concept The theory was first developed in the first decades of 20th century. According to the Plate Tectonic theory‚ the lithosphere breaks up into the tectonic plates. Currently‚ there are seven or eight major plates in the Earth. Generally‚ the lithospheric plates remain on the asthenosphere. All the

Features Plate tectonics theory‚ which is the modern theory of the motions of Earth’s layer‚ explains how geological features‚ such as mountain ranges‚ continents‚ and bodies of water move and form. An important aspect of plate tectonics theory is that the outer layer of the earth is divided into plates which move across the earth’s surface. “These plates move relative to each other‚ typically at rates of 2-4 inches per year. As the plates move‚ they interact along their boundaries” (Plate Tectonics)

boundaries by which an oceanic plate slides slowly under a continental plate into the Earth’s mantle‚ as the result of pressure and friction. After a long period of time the overriding continental plate is lifted up creating a mountain range. This is how the Himalayas were formed. Sometimes the extreme heat and pressure exerted on the subducting oceanic plate causes an uplift of magma from the mantle which rises above the surface‚ creating a volcano. When two plates are moving they don’t always slide
