diseased or damaged tissue in the human body. This process begins with a scaffold, a three-dimensional structure, that it utilized to support the cells as they develop and grow. Scientists take the cells to develop an organ specifically from the person in need of the transplant. Once the organ is produced it can be transplanted without the need for immune suppressants since it was developed from the patient's own cells. The organ will not be rejected by the body. From the research I have done, there

substrate binds to the active site, the active site’s shape slightly changes to perfectly fit the substrate. Just like a protein, the class of macromolecule that an enzyme belongs to, the function of an enzyme depends greatly on its tertiary structure. If the structure of an enzyme changes, the shape of its active site changes also. That means the enzyme will not being able to bind with the substrates it was meant to bind with and the reaction that was supposed to take place in order to perform a specific

entitled itself with the ability and right to decide to what extent bodies were worth of life or deserved death. He mentions that the West has been re-shaping its discourse on what bodies are desirable, non-desirable and what feature, actions, behaviors and so on, are attached to each one of these types of bodies. Through this approach, he introduces the concept of bio-power, or in other words disciplining the politics of the human body. By stating the regulatory role of bio-politics with a population
