    Prof. Bodoh-Creed Anth 338 – Section 1 February 27, 2012 On an ordinary Saturday afternoon, my sister and I made our way to 1st St. and Central Ave. from a failed attempt at another left-to-be-unnamed cultural epicenter, which was a very disappointing trip. Little Tokyo proved to be quite the opposite, as I was able to ascertain a much deeper understanding of the Japanese culture because of it, and at the same time was able to reflect on the differences and similarities of my Filipino heritage. From what I was able to gather, the Japanese and Filipino cultures have quite a few significant differences, but have more similarities than I originally anticipated.…

    C.elegans Research Project Madison Wall A. C. elegans is an ideal organism to use for studying aging because it is generally small in size and has a rapid lifespan. (http://cmgm.stanford.edu/~kimlab/index_wormaging.html). The organism also shares many essential biological characteristics that cause problems in human biology.(Edgley 2014). Worms can be genetically mutated fairly easily because of their 4-day generation time, where it develops from an egg to an adult with a maximum length of 1.5mm, while maintaining transparency. C. elegans being transparent throughout its life stage allows for better inspection and can be seen with easier access. (Hodgkins). With the small size, it allows culture and screening of thousands of animals, compactly and cheaply. They also come with a “toolkit” of genetic and molecular techniques where gene function can be experimentally dissected (Lundquist). Certain mutants and treatments can either extend or shorten the lifespan on C. elegans so it can be assessed faster compared to other animal models. C. elegans small size and fast lifespan is why it is an ideal organism to use for studying aging.…
