My interest in Chemistry and Biology throughout my high school education has led me to apply for college courses in these areas. These are my strongest subjects and the ones in which I feel most capable. My interest in Biology‚ in particular‚ has stemmed from my vocation with domestic dogs. I have trained and helped with the treatment of injured dogs. From an early age and up to 2008‚ I’ve owned a German-Sheppard myself‚ which I trained from harming people and good behavioral manners.

CORE PRACTICAL ONE Describe how the effect of caffeine on heart rate in Daphnia can be investigated practically‚ and discuss whether there are ethical issues in the use of invertebrates. Daphnia‚ the water flea‚ is a small freshwater crustacean which lacks physiological methods of maintaining a constant body temperature. This means that if the environmental temperature changes‚ its body temperature does so too and its metabolic rate will be expected to rise or fall accordingly. So the temperature

INTRODUCTION I. Have you ever wondered how the process of sexual reproduction begins in multi-cellular organisms such as ourselves? II. It all begins through a cell division process known as meiosis. III. I am currently a biology major at CSU-Pueblo looking to pursue a degree in wildlife biology. IV. During the process of meiosis‚ diploid cells split in half‚ forming four haploid cells‚ which each have a single set of chromosomes. These cells are called either gametes or sex cells. Female gametes are egg

Module 1 ‘Introduction to Molecular Biology’ Learning Objectives (Chapter 6) Molecular Biology‚ DNA‚ chromosomes‚ and the central dogma. Understand Nucleic Acid Structure and properties (including alternate forms of DNA structure and supercoiling‚ and renaturation) Explain the nature of Prokaryotic Chromosome Understand the differences in re-association kinetics of single-copy vs. repeated sequence Understand how DNA re-association provides a measure of genome size in base pairs Functions

The Ted Talk video entitled “Animations of Unseeable Biology” describes the process of DNA replication. As the speaker Drew Berry explains‚ this process is repeatedly occurring and is performed mechanically. He provides us an animation of how a chromosome is replicated and split with the help of microtubules. Microtubules are straight tubes that are made up of proteins and it resides within a cell. This hollow tube allows the mitosis phase to occur. The copying of DNA is transported across the microtubules

Advanced Cell Biology II Step 1: How will you identify the “vital” cellular protein that the virus targets for degradation? (Hint: think proteomics). (3 pts.) First‚ since we know the viral RNA sequence and its targeting protein‚ we can investigate it in bioinformatics database‚ and can acquire some clues or hints about the target proteins. From the bioinformatics database‚ we might be able to find its structure‚ similarity with other proteins‚ functions‚ and binding domains. In other words

1. Model organisms are species that are studied to understand the biology of other organisms‚ usually humans. Fruit flies share 75% of the genes that cause certain diseases with humans. Therefore scientists can learn about human genetics by studying fruit fly genetics. This falls under the bigger principle of understanding the basic biology that all organisms have in common. Common fruit flies like Drosophila are useful when studying genetics for several reasons‚ such as their small size that makes
