GMOS GMOs, or genetically modified organisms, have been around for about 40 years now. A genetically modified organism is a plant or animal whose genes or “DNA” have been modified in such a way that the product is not naturally found in nature or through natural cross-breeding. Traditionally, the genes with the desired characteristic are introduced to the genes of the plant/animal that is being genetically modified. This results in a plant that is very similar to the original, but contains varying

There are two types of cell transport mechanisms. These types of transports are passive and active transport. The difference between active and passive is that passive does not require energy and active does require energy. The reason passive does not require energy is because it travels down a concentration gradient. On a concentration gradient molecules naturally move from high to low concentration. In active transport, molecules move from low to high concentration. There are three different types

how does human activity affect nature? human activity affects nature in many ways, as time goes on and civilization advances nature pays the toll more and more. due to the number of the human population rising constantly more and more animals need to be killed for food but in the lines of nature more space is required for living so forests may be cut down meaning less oxygen in the air which increases harmful gases in the air which could lead to more acid rain so more plants could be killed. we

their classrooms. 1. Every Biology teacher is unique in terms of personal characteristics, educational background, attitudes, beliefs, and use of educational technology. 2. Biology requires a “discipline-specific” use of technology in the delivery of pedagogical content. Existing educational technology tools in schools which may be suitable for other fields of study will not always work efficiently when teaching Biology. 3. The level of Educational Technology use by Biology Teachers in the Philippines

Report on the connection between the Central dogma of Molecular Biology/ Bioinformatics, Model Organism and Drug Designing. The basis of the central dogma of molecular biology is the expression of the genetic information in any call. It is a universal process that occurs in every cell. The genetic information is stored in the DNA. During gene expression DNA is transcript to RNA and these RNA are transcribed to proteins. Bioinformatics deals with the genetic information which involves collecting

TRANSPORT AND EFFECTS OF EXERCISES Aim To investigate the effect of exercise on pulse rate and evaluate effects of other variables. Risk assessment Comfortable shoes to be worn. Participants not allowed pausing during exercising. Participants were not supposing to excide 3 minutes (over exercising). Method The pulse rate was taken on the radial artery using two fingers whilst the participant was sitting quietly in a comfortable position. It was measured for three times before exercises and
