WHAT SHOULD DETERMINE OUR RACIAL IDENTITY?
IS IT OUR DNA, OUR APPEARANCE, OUR CHOICE, OUR FAMILY OR OUR CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
Pros and Cons of individual genome profiling
GENOME PROFILING helps in learning about all the present genes inside a human or inside a specific cell type along with the way those genes interact amongst each other and in the environment
Should we make use of nanobots for producing and delivering drugs to human patients?
Nanobots are the tiny robots that are inserted into the patient’s body and they work on a cellular level.
Scientists studying behavioural epigenetics suggest that traumatic experiences like cultural revolution in china and holocaust tend to affect the dna of the future generations
Scientists studying behavioural epigenetics suggest that traumatic experiences like cultural revolution in china and holocaust tend to affect the dna of the future generations. is the concept of behavioural epigenetics true? is yes, how to apply the idea?
As men age, do they pass on genetic abnormalities to their children?
DNA, the basic code of life that makes us who we are, is often the victim of mutations, every single one of them.
AN IMAGING TECHNIQUE GIVING 3D VIEW OF PROTEINS BAGS NOBEL PRIZE IN CHEMISTRY
The new cryo-electron microscopy technology is an imaging technique which provides a 3D image of proteins.
DNA SUPPORTS EARLY EVOLUTION OF HOMO SAPIENS
A new study has been discovered which breaks apart all the notions. It is suggests the timeline of homo sapiens. The paper was made public in Science on 28th September, where the researchers concluded that the homo sapiens has first existed almost 2,60,000 to 3,50,000 years prior. The new fossil found in Morocco dates back to 3,00,000 years ago. This pushes the timeline of homo sapiens a further back.
WHAT IS BINARY FISSION?
Binary fission is a kind of cell division where the parent cell copies its genetic material and then divides into two daughter cells with each new cell containing one complete set of the genetic instructions that are needed to run the cell.
WHAT IS DNA?
DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is known to be the master molecule of every cell. It is the carrier of important information that is passed on from one generation to another and so on. Cell dies if it is destroyed.
Genetic Engineering
the deliberate modification of the characteristics of an organism by manipulating its genetic material.
Carbon and Its Allotropes
Carbon is placed at number 6 on the periodic table and is one of the most abundant elements in universe and in the earth’s crust. It is also the fundamental building block of all organisms. Hence, compounds of Carbon are known as organic compounds, and the study of Carbon compounds is known as Organic Chemistry.
