Cuba Cuba, officially named "Republic of Cuba", is the largest island in the Caribbean. The capital of Cuba is Havana, and its population is 10.8 million. The main language used by most cubans is spanish and the currency used there is a Cuban Peso, which is equal to one U.S. Dollar. Cuba is a communist state and its president, since December 1976, is Fidel Castro Ruz. The main objective of this paper is to talk about the economic and political side of Cuba during the reign of Fidel

Technology has made many progress and has influence numerous inventions and has improved the quality of life. However, the one technology that has continued to affect the world is the computer and the internet. The development of these technologies has made information from all over the world easily accessible with just the click of a button. The development of information technology as influence new and creative developments through the storing and sharing of data. Today, information technology

Actinomyces israelii Morphology • Size, shape and motility o Actinomyces israelii is small, filamentous bacteria. It is a bacillus and is normally seen in short chains. Actinomyces is non motile.3 o Some cultures may produce colonies made up of short angular branching filaments or small rough compact colonies with no filaments 6 o Macrocolonies on blood agar and Brain- Heart infusion agar are .5-3 mm in diameter. These colonies are circular to irregular, lobate and white.6 o Structures

then put into certain conditions to prompt the gene to multiply. Vectors can range from bacteria to viruses to yeast cells (National Human Genome Research Institution). DNA cloning is the starting point of many genetic engineering approaches to biotechnology research. For example, cloning animal models of disease can be used to study the gene that the animal carries causing mutations. By duplicating these transgenic animals, much time is saved in the trial-and-error process of learning about human

what farmers do. And so will billions more. In the next few decades, farmers will have to grow as much food as they have in the past 10,000 years – combined. We work alongside farmers to do exactly that by selling seeds, traits developed through biotechnology, and crop protection chemicals. We are working to double yields in our core crops by 2030 with one-third fewer resources such as land, water and energy per unit produced and helping farmers to raise themselves from poverty to prosperity, along

than the normal climate. Mouse models are used to study human diseases. The use of GMO will increase crop yields and promote efficient land use; with more land you could plant more crops which will decrease hunger. The application of animal biotechnology is the use of animal organs in humans. For example pigs are currently used to supply heart valves for insertion into humans. Some examples of transgenic advantages are agricultural applications such as breeding; farmers have used selective breeding

Introduction: This unit, about Enzymes and Biotechnology, contains information on how enzymes work in chemical reaction. For every enzyme there is a substrate made of reactant molecules that is worked upon. During a chemical reaction, the enzyme lactase breaks lactose molecules into their monomers, glucose and galactose. This lab is observing enzyme specificity as demonstrated by how lactase affects the presence of glucose in soy, cow, and rice milk. Data: Conclusion: 1. Cow milk contains lactose
