sub-imprinting of chromosomes which can possibly lead to the fetus growing up to discover he or she suffers from a mental illness or disorder raises more questions than answers. If a mental illness or disorder is genetic then can is be cured through stem cell research? What makes a mothers genetic makeup more dominant then the fathers or vice versa? More research needed to answer all the questions this discovery has

Amanda Wihlen KNS 480 Article April 1, 2013 Genetic testing for sports is not something that is very common. Some people think that it is needed so that any type of athlete can do well in their preferred sport/skills. On the other hand, the disadvantage could be that sports may not just be for fun anymore. According to Bill Miller, genetic testing will change sports in a way that each individual will be able to maximize their performance in certain areas and minimize their risk for any sort

inherited. Most cells have a nucleus, which is a part of the cell that controls it. The nucleus contains chromosomes which are huge molecules of DNA found inside the nucleus of the cells. A chromosome consists of a string of genes. A gene carries an instruction. It’s the section of a chromosome that controls inherited characteristics of an organism and carries genetic information. Each gene is a length of DNA. DNA is a long coiled molecule which can unzip and copy itself when a cell divides. It

body structure units and their functions are: Cells, Tissues, Organs, and Systems. Cells Humans and all living things are made up of about 100 trillion small cells that can only be seen via a microscope. Cells can reproduce themselves and live independently. Some cells are specialized and become a different shape and size (elongated, oval, square, flat etc) dependant on its function. Here are just a few examples: * Epithelial cells – can be flat, cubed or column shaped. They protect

and can sometimes be toxic to the users. This is due to the differences between different people and the fact that everyone has a different genetic makeup. For example, Her2/neu genes code for a protein receptor, the Her2 receptor, which deals with cell growth and differentiation. Some polymorphisms in the Her2/neu genes can change how some women’s breasts grow, leading to possible tumors. Cancer can also cause mutations, making the Her2/neu genes overactive, leading to tumors. Thus, women with
