1. Introduction Ryan Nichols‚ in his paper‚ “Scientific Content‚ Testability‚ and the Vacuity of Intelligent Design Theory‚” argues that Intelligent Design Theory (IDT) does not have content due its lack of support and failure to promote further scientific inquiry. I will argue in this paper that his conclusion is false‚ and that IDT does promote further scientific inquiry and receives support from other theories . 2. Nichols’s Argument Formalized 1. If IDT does not have confirmation from other

protein synthesis occurred‚ with these new genetic traits from the plasmid. In protein synthesis‚ there are three steps: transcription‚ RNA processing‚ and translation. In transcription‚ the enzyme RNA polymerase unzips doubled stranded DNA‚ and then attaches the corresponding nucleotides to the DNA sequence. Then‚ RNA Processing occurs‚ where the new messenger RNA strand is edited by a spliceosome. The spliceosome cuts out specific sections of the strand‚ and then the strand is able to come back together

DNA Research Paper DNA Structure: DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the code for life; it makes up the genetic material of living organisms. DNA is a long molecule made up of many subunits‚ or monomers‚ called nucleotides. Nucleotides are made up of three parts: a sugar‚ a phosphate group‚ and a nitrogenous base. Nucleotides contain a sugar-phosphate backbone and bases. There are four bases in DNA: adenine‚ cytosine‚ guanine‚ and thymine. A (adenine) always pairs with T (thymine)‚ and C (cytosine)

threads called chromatin‚ which is indistinct in the nondividing cell‚ but it condenses to chromosomes at the time of cell division. This is where the DNA resides. The most prominent structure in the nucleus is the nucleolus which produces ribosomal RNA or rRNA. Multicellular organisms consist of many cells that are specialized for one particular function and carry it out very efficiently. The labor in a eukaryotic cell is divided with each part of the cell doing its job so as to ensure the survival

and Thymine. Adenine and Thymine are always paired with each other while Guanine and Cytosine always paired. The other nucleic acid found in the nucleus is RNA. There are 4 major differences between DNA and RNA: DNA is double stranded while RNA is single stranded‚ RNA has Uracil instead of Thymine‚ DNA has a double helix structure‚ and RNA has a ribose for a sugar and DNA has a deoxyribose. In this lab we were focusing on DNA and its extraction from wheat germ. There are two to three basic steps
