requiring bio products. Father of the term biotechnology is ‘Karl Ereky’ and Father of Biotechnology was ‘Louis Pasteur’. DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Ribonucleic acid or RNA, is one of the three major macromolecules (along with DNA and proteins) that are essential for all known forms of life. A pipette (also called a pipet, pipettor or chemical

part of amino acids. Therefore, in nature animals receive selenium mainly in the organic form. Research had shown that Organic Selenium is far more beneficial for us as our body absorbs and retain Organic Selenium at a better rate. Organic Selenium vs Inorganic Selenium Organic Selenium Inorganic Selenium • Exists in the form of seleno-amino acids, i.e. selenomethionine. • Exists in the form of mineral salt. • Is actively absorbed by amino acid routes. • Is passively absorbed from the small intestine

Photosynthesis and respiration are connected between plants and animals based on the reactants and products of both pathways by the usage of autotrophs and heterotrophs. An autotroph are organisms the have the ability to manufacture their own food (“Autotroph vs. Heterotroph” n.d.). Heterotroph organisms are essential in respiration and are not an element in photosynthesis. When it comes to the autotroph, this is done by the using the available substances, in their environment, with light (photosynthesis)

Creation of splice site Mechanisms of mRNA Splicing Introns vs. Exons Donor acceptor pairs: GT-AG, GC-AG, AT-AC, and GT-GG. (Fong et al. 2006). The base pair progressions, GT, GC, and AT have the potential to set of a splice site. The splice site signals the excision of genetic information, leading
