eight Millennium Development Goals would not be met unless decisive action was taken to stabilize ecosystem services.We use the term ‘modern biotechnology’ to describe techniques which are not used in traditional breeding or selection‚ such as the manipulation of genetic material and the fusion of cells. The more sophisticated forms of modern biotechnology‚ including genomics and proteomics‚ present unprecedented opportunities for Africa to address some of its problems and stimulate economic growth

Use of forensics and biotechnology in Criminal Justice Abstract “Proof” is defined as an act or process of showing that something is true (Merriam-Webster’s online dictionary). In criminal justice‚ proof is seemingly the most important factor in crime solving. As the old saying goes “it’s not what you know‚ it’s what you can prove.” The method of gathering and examining information is known as forensic science; a prominent resource in the law enforcement field. Whether on television or in

Option F: Microbes and Biotechnology Diversity of Microbe F.1.1 Outline the classification of living organisms into three domains. Three domains of living organisms: 1. Archaea - very primitive; live in extreme habitats 2. Eubacteria - more advanced 3. Eukaryota - all life forms with eukaryotic cells (have a nucleus) Use of ribosomal RNA sequences for classification rRNA is found in all cells rRNA is easy to isolate Analyzed to determine the exact sequence of nucleotide bases

I’m sure you have heard of the Biotechnology field before. It is the field in which living organisms are modified genetically in order to enhance them to make useful products. This has been used widely in the agriculture industry in the past decade with lots of controversy surrounding it. Maybe‚ you have heard of the Human Genome Project that was completed in April of 2003. It is when the first Human Genome was sequenced. This too is a part of the Biotechnology field and with the Human Genome Project

vBiotechnology – Human Cloning Should it be done? Biotechnology is a field of biology that involves the use of living things in engineering‚ technology‚ medicine and other useful applications. The concept of this field includes a range of procedures for modifying living organisms according to human purposes. One major subject in biotechnology is human cloning. This is the asexual creation of a genetically identical copy of a human‚ human cell or a human tissue. It is a controversial issue

This House would ban animal testing In this debate testing should be defined as all testing including‚ medical research‚ cosmetics‚ toxicology‚ and psychology research where animals are used in any part of an experiment. An animal could sensibly be defined as vertebrates. With this exception of cephalopods‚ no invertebrates have any legal standing in any country so far as I am aware‚ and it would be hard to construct a case for any invertebrates having moral rights. The ban should be defined as
