When planning on what school to attend you should also remember what disabilities they have and talk to the counselor or principle of the school. It is also important to find a qualified teacher‚ your kids still deserve to learn and grow just like the rest. A lot of people might not know what a learning disability is

My paternal and maternal grandparents’ health history has provided me a knowledgeable background of my family and health history. I have learned some interesting information about my family’s health history from the family tree I created. Chong Nhia Vang‚ my paternal grandfather‚ was born healthy and now he has dementia/Alzheimer’s due to aging. He also has hearing loss. It is likely not a coincidence that one of my paternal uncles‚ Rauj Vang‚ also has dementia/Alzheimer’s at a younger age than my

MITOSIS The Stages of Mitosis Mitosis is simply described as having four stages—prophase‚ metaphase‚ anaphase‚ and telophase; the steps follow one another without interruption. The entire four-stage division process averages about one hour in duration‚ and the period between cell divisions‚ called interphase or interkinesis‚ varies greatly but is considerably longer. During INTERPHASE the chromosomes are dispersed in the nucleus and appear as a network of long‚ thin threads or filaments‚ called the

Offspring are identical replicas of parent. Cell divides after DNA is replicated. No gametes are formed‚ can also occur by fragmentation (a piece of the organism breaking off) | Meiotic division. 2 parents are required. Each parent contributes ½ of the genetic

of events that occurs during each phase. There are two main stages of the cell cycle‚ with multiple subdivisions within each. Interphase is the first stage‚ and it’s composed of G1 (contents of the cell are duplicated sans the chromosomes)‚ S (chromosomal duplication)‚ and G2 (checkpoints) phase. After interphase‚ there is the mitotic phase. The mitotic phase is composed of mitosis (division) and then cytokinesis (division of cytoplasm=2 daughter cells). The cell cycle ultimately produces two daughter

Around Four Million women are expecting a child this year and all of those 4 million babies could be carrying one of 7‚000 known child diseases‚ according to the National Institute of Health. On average‚ one of those 7‚000 dieses will only affect about 200‚000 babies per year‚ but what if that baby was one’s own and what if they could save he/she from facing this disease. Would they? This is the questions modern day parents are facing as genetic testing become more and more popular. Genetic testing

Genetic Engineering INTRODUCTION Genetic Engineering Involves methods‚ techniques‚ and procedures used in gene manipulation. Furthermore‚ it Involves isolation‚ manipulation and reintroduction of DNA into cells or model organisms‚ usually to express a protein to reach desired effects. Aim: to introduce new characteristics or attributes physiologically or physically Such as: making a crop resistant to herbicide‚ introducing a novel trait‚ enhancing existing ones‚ or producing a new protein

Genes determine biological sex; assess the extent to which gender is bases on our genes. Although our chromosomal pairing will determine our sex (XX ’’ female and XY ’’ male)‚ this does not necessarily determine one’s gender. Gender is influenced at a pre-natal stage‚ via the release of testosterone from the gonads of an XY foetus. It is this testosterone release that sets in motion the train of events that lead to the eventual release of the other androgens from the pituitary gland. It is

Anemia in the United States: the prevalence and treatment of Iron Deficiency Anemia‚ Pernicious Anemia‚ Fanconi anemia‚ Sickle Cell anemia‚ and Thalassemia in the United States Abstract This paper will look to compare 5 different types of anemia their evolution‚ the most heavily affected population and their mortality rates. Anemia is the most common blood disorder currently affecting more than 3 million Americans and over 2 billion people globally. Although many cases of anemia are mild‚ it can
