designer babies‚ as it’s not the parent’s choice to play with their child’s genetics. However in some cases this is families only option to do this because if they already had a child who need a bone marrow transplant. Scientists can make the siblings match so this designer baby can give some of their own bone marrow to the brother or sister. Most people opinion of creating a designer baby for the purpose of saving another child life is that it’s okay. But only if it’s for these purposes not for cosmetic

Describe their function. Somatic cells play an important role in growth‚ maintenance‚ and repair. 6.) Compare embryonic and somatic stem cells. Somatic stem cells differ from embryonic stem cells: under natural conditions‚ they can give rise to just a few cell types. 7.) Besides bone marrow where

Hodgkin’s lymphoma use to be called the Hodgkin’s disease‚ it is one of the many types of cancers that produces in the lymphatic system. Let’s talk a little bit about the lymphatic system and how it works. Lymphatic system is made up of thin tubes that will branch out to all of the body parts. The job for this is to fight infection and disease. “The lymphatic system carries lymph‚ a colorless fluid that contains lymphocytes” (cancer.gov) Of course lymphocytes are a form of small leukocyte “white

Pluri means several and these type of stem cells have the ability to turn into many different types of cells. For formed elements pluripotent cells reproduce in the bone marrow and become two different types of cells: myeloid stem cells and lymphoid stem cells. While myeloid stem cells complete development in the red bone marrow and create the majority of formed elements in the blood‚ lymphoid

distress and a particular area is under attack‚ white blood cells rush in to help destroy the harmful substance and prevent illness. White blood cells are produced inside the bone marrow and stored in your blood and lymphatic tissues. Because some white blood cells have a short lifespan of one to three days‚ your bone marrow is constantly producing them. Types of white blood cells Among your white blood cells are: Monocytes. They have a longer lifespan than many white blood cells and help to break

The Chemical Components of Bone Questions A. Describe the effect that the lemon juice (acid) had on the chicken leg bone. When you soak the chicken bone in the lemon juice‚ it pulls out the calcium from the bone which makes the bone very weak. Because of this‚ you can actually bend and twist the bone. The bone marrow just squeezes out‚ and the bone is like rubber. B. Describe the effect that baking (heat) had on the chicken leg bone. When you bake the bone‚ the heat forces the collagen
