The research paper will be about the four major types of tissue (1. Epithelial Tissue, 2. Connective TissueEstimate the length of a cell and show your calculations in your paper. You can come up with your own number. , 3. Muscle Tissue, 4. Nervous Tissue)

Estimate the length of a cell and show your calculations in your paper. You can come up with your own number. To figure the length of one cell, divide the number of cell over the diameter of the field of view.

1) What environmental factors might cause the onset of  cancer?

2) How do you detect the presence of this cancer in someone?

3) What are its symptoms in someone who has it?

Name one kind of chemotherapy used to get rid of the remaining cancer cells.

/in /by

For this part of our cancer discussion series, we are still looking at the cancer you chose in Discussion 9. However, we will be thinking about standard treatment options.

1) Staging: What do the stages of this cancer look like?

2) Surgery: When is it wise to perform surgery on someone who has this cancer. If the answer is ‘none’, then explain why not.

3) Radiation: What types of radiation are used to attack the cancer cells? Are there side effects of the radiation? If so, what are they?

4) Chemotherapy: Name one kind of chemotherapy used to get rid of the remaining cancer cells. How does it work? What are its side effects?

Using AN example from either Biofuels, Prebiotics or Detergents, explain how enzyme properties can be modified to generate products of societal value.

/in /by

Using AN example from either Biofuels, Prebiotics or Detergents, explain how enzyme properties can be modified to generate products of societal value.

Within your answer you should include:
• the use of enzymes in the production of your chosen example (biofuels, prebiotics or detergents).

• the function of an enzyme, and the catalytic mechanism of enzymes wherever applicable.

• the advantages that enzymes offer over traditional/industrial processes.
• the way in which enzymes can be used, or engineered to improve efficacy and cost effectiveness.

 

How do the orexins, leptin and ghrelin work together to control appetite?

/in /by

What are the molecules that control appetite? (hint: next sentence) How
do the orexins, leptin and ghrelin work together to control appetite? Which cells are responsible
for producing these molecules and what are the molecular pathways that are activated? Identify
the targets and how the signaling pathways are regulated. Which molecules oppose appetite and how do they suppress the craving for food? You may need to consider not only the signaling
pathways but the neural pathways as well.
This is the topic, these questions need to be addressed in the research paper.

What are the characteristics of Streptococcus species? How are Staphylococcus species generally different?

/in /by

•What are the characteristics of Streptococcus species? How are Staphylococcus species generally different?

•How are Streptococcus species classified? What characteristics play an important role in these classifications?

•What are some of the different tests to differentiate between Streptococcus species?

•Understand why each of these tests are used, how bacteria interact with these types of media, and how to interpret the results of these tests (i.e. what is the bile esculin test, how do bacteria interact with this media (e.g. black precipitate), and what does this tell us about the bacteria?)•Know which tests use selective vs differential medias.
