Genetic Observations Through The Studies of Hybrid Corn‚ Single Gene Human Traits‚ and Fruit Flies The basic foundation of modern genetics was led by Gregor Mendel (Corcos‚ 1993). Mendel was not the first to experiment with heredity‚ and our Lyman Briggs biology class will not be the last to deal with genetics. Genetics is the science of heredity. In our lab‚ we had three main objectives. First‚ we evaluated our data on monohybrid and dihybrid corn cross seed counts against Mendel ’s theoretical

However‚ there are risks associated with gene therapy that prompt the discussion of whether or not the risks are worth the outcome. Humans are such a heterogeneous species that it is difficult to predict a universal outcome of a certain gene in all people(2). This can result in immune attacks resulting in death or at best‚ no impact on the patient (2). This was seen in the case of the 1990s where a virus entered

Circulatory systems Closed circulatory systems: • Blood leaves heart under pressure to arteries then arterioles then capillaries. • Capillaries come in large numbers. They exchange substances between the blood and cells. • After passing through capillaries‚ blood goes back to the heart via veins. • Valves in the veins ensure that blood only flows in one direction. Single circulatory system: • Heart pumps deoxygenated blood. • Gaseous exchange (diffusion of CO2 from blood to H2O and diffusion
