“Contemporary designers can learn from history‚ but why is studying design history is useful?” Contemporary designers are creators of objects‚ buildings or surroundings that rely on characteristics such as lines‚ smooth and sleek surfaces‚ very little intricate details. There designs are spacious and/or comfortable‚ with the asset of clutter. However they must study design history because to open their mind to the past they will learn new ideas and ideologies‚ “To know nothing of what happened

article‚ “Elephant Genes Hold Cancer-Fighting Secret‚” the author‚ Laura Geggel‚ explains how researchers have recently discovered that cancer is less common in elephants than in humans because they have more copies of a gene that stops tumor growth. Researchers that understand how this gene has evolved and why it works to stop cancer growth in elephants may be able help find ways to treat or cure cancer in humans. Researchers conducted a study that focused mainly on the TP53 gene‚ which normally codes

Longevity pathways converge on autophagy genes to regulate life span in Caenorhabditis elegans Autophagy‚ translated from Greek means to ‘self eat’. It is a basic catabolic mechanism involving cell degradation of unwanted or dysfunctional cellular components through the lysosome. Autophagy has been speculated to alter lifespan in organisms. Autophagy is triggered in response to varied stress and physiological conditions like food deficit‚ hyperthermia‚ etc. At molecular level‚ an autophagy pathway

Examining the RNA Interference Mechanism in the dpy-13 Gene in C. Elegans Through Feeding Mehdi Misto Lab: Monday 1:00 – 4:50 PM 11 December 2012 Introduction: RNA interference‚ or RNAi‚ is a biological process in which RNA molecules reduce the gene expression of an organism. This is done typically by causing the destruction of specific mRNA molecules. RNAs are direct products of genes‚ these small RNAs can bind to other mRNA molecules to either increase or decrease their activity like in the example

Cultural Histories & Theories: 22 Beyond Shopping: The Responsibilities of Consumption Title: What is ethical advertising? Discuss how designers address such issue nowadays when they convey their message to consumers. Advertising is often seen as “social messages” that have been given a purpose to attract viewers’ attention. As aimed at the general public‚ they should be conscientious‚ or in other words‚ good. Yet not all aesthetically commendable advertisements convey worthy messages or promote

Using P-element Induced Male Recombination to Generate a Deletion in the DMAP1 Gene on Chromosome Two in Drosophila melanogaster Abstract: The goal of this study was to induce a deletion in the DMAP1 gene on chromosome two in Drosophila melanogaster through P-element mobilization. The DMAP1 gene may be an essential gene‚ however not much is known about it. We attempted to uncover the function of DMAP1 by creating a series of genetic crosses and selecting for brown-eyed non-stubble male flies

Segregation. This experiment investigated the effects of complete and incomplete dominance on the behavior of two different genes for chlorophyll production in tobacco. Two sets of approximately 50-100 tobacco seeds were planted for one week. The plants were the F2 result of two sets of monohybrid F1 crosses Gg x Gg and CyCg x CyCg. A chromosome for these plants has two sets of genes. The gene at one locus has two alleles that code for normal chlorophyll production. Dominant allele represented as G produce

"Gattaca"‚ written and directed by Andrew Niccol‚ depicts a futuristic world of a cold society‚ where one’s resume exists in their cells and genes. Although genes play a significant part to a successful life in this world‚ the path and success of one’s life is not determined solely on DNA as demonstrated by Eugene‚ Anton and in particular‚ Vincent who clearly "exceeds his potential". Vincent Freeman is cast into society’s redundant section as being an "invalid"‚ however he overcomes this burden
