September‚ 2013 Tissue Ownership “I think people are morally obligated to allow their bits and pieces to be used to advance knowledge to help others” (Korn). Different people have opposing opinions on the topic of whether or not patients or doctors own the body tissues after it’s been removed from the patient. Ownership is the act‚ state‚ or right of possessing something. Tissue ownership is different from ownership because once it leaves your body‚ you no longer own it. Contributing your tissues to the

Connective Tissue As the name implies‚ connective tissue serves a "connecting" function. It supports and binds other tissues. Unlike epithelial tissue‚ connective tissue typically has cells scattered throughout an extracellular matrix. Loose Connective Tissue In vertebrates‚ the most common type of connective tissue is loose connective tissue. It holds organs in place and attaches epithelial tissue to other underlying tissues. Loose connective tissue is named based on the "weave" and type

specific for a particular reaction. However‚ there are several factors affect the rate of enzyme reactions‚ they are temperature‚ pH‚ concentration of enzyme‚ concentration of substrate and inhibitors. High temperature and pH affects the structure of enzyme‚ irreversible denaturation occurs‚ the shape of active site is changed‚ enzymes therefore no longer function. The effect of the other factors is slowing down the rate of enzyme reactions‚ it depends on the concentration of those factors. Since enzymes

Muscle tissue Muscle tissue has a ability to relax and contrast and so bring about movement and mechanical work in various parts of the body. There are other movements in the body too which are necessary for the survival of the organism such as the heart beat and the movements of the alimentary canal. Muscles can be divided into three main groups according to their structure * Smooth muscle tissue. * Skeletal muscle tissue. * Cardiac (heart) muscle tissue.

Planning Exercise Aim To investigate the effect of phosphate on cell division in root tips. Background knowledge Phosphate ions (macronutrients) are needed large amounts by plants. They are required for root growth. For the root tips cells to divide‚ mitosis has to occur. Phosphate is needed for production of ATP which provides energy for mitosis to occur. DNA replication occurs during interphase of the cell cycle. DNA is made up of nitrogen containing base‚ pentose sugar and phosphate group

Plant tissue culture is widely used to produce clones of a plant in a method known as micropropagation. Different techniques in plant tissue culture may offer certain advantages over traditional methods of propagation‚ including: • The production

Collenchyma cell have thicker primary walls than parenchyma cell‚ though the walls are unevenly thickened. Young stems and petioles often have strands of collenchyma cells just below their epidermis. Collenchyma cells lack secondary walls‚ and the hardening agent lignin is absent in their primary walls. Therefore‚ they provide flexible support without restraining growth. At functional maturity‚ collenchyma cells are living and flexible‚ elongating with the stems and leaves they support. Grouped in

There are three different types of epithelial tissues that are found inside the human body. There is the cutaneous membrane (tissue)‚ which we would refer to as “skin”. This part is the only epithelial tissue that is touched by air and is dry. The cutaneous membrane is composed of keratinizing stratified squamous epithelium. The second is the mucous membrane‚ which is the tissue used for absorption and secretion‚ protective lubricating mucus in the repertory and digestive system. This membrane

There are thousands of burn victims awaiting donations of human tissue to help meet critical needs in reconstructive surgery. My current case #49 regards the selling of human tissue donations. It’s a complicated situation where a few medical centers have acquired a partnership with a biotechnological company called Ardias Corporation. Ardias wants to create a tissue bank to help facilitate researchers with disease-specific tissue that will provide a link to accurate genetic sequence with diseases
