Great Barrier Reef Coral reefs house an array of kinds such as coral polyps‚ tropical fish‚ shellfish‚ turtles and various sea plants. About 25% of the worldwide reef systems have been abandoned by human activities. Though it is threatened as a World Heritage Area‚ it is still greatly squeezed by the human environment. Effluence‚ mining and tourism all have damaging effects on coral reefs. IMPACTS - Agriculture Cultivation is also affecting the water ailment of the oceans and the Great Barrier

The body systems The Musculoskeletal system consists of the bones‚ muscles‚ ligaments and tendons. It provides structural support for the entire body. The musculoskeletal system allows and controls movement. The Cardiovascular system is responsible for transporting and removing gaseous waste from the body. The cardiovascular system is made up of your heart‚ blood vessels (arteries‚ veins‚ capillaries) and blood. The four major functions of the cardiovascular system are: To transport nutrients‚

cloned dolly the sheep in 1996 with successful results. Gurdon predicts that there will be major controversy over the action of cloning but after it has been done and proven to work he says people will accept it as they do with in-vitro fertilization. Gurdon states that In-vitro fertilization was regarded with extreme suspicion before it actually produced successful results in 1978 and now it is widely accepted‚ which he believes will happen with cloning in the future. Creating Humans in such a way could

In 1956‚ Denham Harman articulated the free radical theory of aging which states that ‘oxygen free radicals that are formed endogenously in live cells result in a pattern of cumulative damage’(9). The theory is also implied that the target of those radicals in the cellular system is random. In live cells‚ DNA‚ protein and lipid are targets for the free radical’s invasion. Damaging any of those vital macromolecules in live cell affects the physiology of the cell and may lead to apoptosis and cell

Experiments on animals are cruel and expensive. New scientists are developing methods that replace animals. The tests use human cells and tissue (known as in-vitro methods)‚ computer modeling techniques (known as in-silico methods)‚ and studies with human volunteers. The new experiments take less time and money to complete. The primary use of in-vitro tests is to detect specific toxic properties of drugs and/or chemicals. The studies normally take place in labware such as test tubes‚ flasks‚ petri dishes

very controversial; especially embryonic stem cell research. Many debate over the ethics of the research versus the medical advantages. The medical advantages outweigh the ethical views. The mass of embryonic stem cells that are used come for in vitro fertilization (IVF) (Black). Those cells are disposed as medical waste—using them for research gives those cells a purpose and to be wasted (16). Embryonic stem cells can regenerate into nerve cells which can solve brain diseases such as Parkinson’s

process of deriving the new drug starts in the laboratory. The chemical formula of the drug are composed in the lab and also called as the vitro testing. This type of testing performed before the drug can be tested on the animals or humans. The vitro testing gives the chemical description of the new drug and formulates the base and additional supplements. After vitro testing is done‚ the vivo testing starts on the animals. This process includes testing to figure out the possible side effects‚ level of

More specifically‚ it looks at the effects of quercetin on exercise performance and how it may be beneficial in increasing endurance tolerance through both in vitro and in vivo studies. Davis et al. finds that quercetin is able to increase mitochondrial biogenesis as well as act as an antagonist to the adenosine A1 receptor‚ thus delaying fatigue and up-regulating dopamine release.
