Introduction
C.Elegans are roundworms or threadworms that are 1mm in length and found living within soil around many parts of the world, these C. Elegans thrive on rotting vegetation where it can survive, feeding on microbes such as bacteria, these C. Elegans are non-infectious, non-pathogenic and non-hazardous. They are of a long cylindrical shape that looks rather tapered at each end. These worms are found in both aquatic and terrestrial free living environment’s.
C.Elegans also known as Caenorhabditis Elegans are a nematode which is a member of a phylum nematode family. Majority of these nematodes are males the rest are known as hermaphrodites, which are a species of having both sexes to be able to keep up the reproduction at a good balance.

The complex nematode was then used due to it being more amenable to genetic analysis and the simple nervous system it has.
All over the world there are many scientists that are working full time in the study of these C. Elegans and have created scientific articles about the C. Elegans and their lifespan. They have been found to show many of the same essential biological characteristics that have the similar problems found in human biology and by using these C. Elegans it would make it easier to treat patients that have age associated neurogenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Huntington’s

Elegans mutations are found to be well maintained within the ISS Insulin/IGF-1 pathway that can have a lead on a longer lifespan extension and this can help with age related diseases along with the improvement of health in later life, This is very important in the understanding of these age related neurodegenerative diseases because it will help with understanding of how people/patients could then go on to being helped with these diseases as well as along with tumour formations patients, These functions are looked at closely by the FoxO transcription factor known as DAF-16 using microarrays, bioinformatics predictions as well as SAGE ( serial analysis of gene expression) and DAF-16 is located downstream from the ISS Kinase cascade. Looking at how the DAF-16 target gene along with testing its functions has been a long process of over 10 years in the ageing
Aurora’s are one of the seven wonders of the world, because they are stunning. Aurora’s are formed when particles from the sun hit the Earth. These “particles” are called solar winds. They contain a lot of energy, and when they hit other atoms, like the Earth’s atmosphere, they emit light, which creates the aurora’s. Aurora’s emit different colors of light depending on what gas they are emitting. Green, like the one here, and maroon, occur because they emit oxygen. A blue color occurs when nitrogen is given off. Last, red can mean both oxygen or nitrogen.
Matthew Henson was the first African-American to reach the North Pole. Matthew Alexander Henson was born on August 8, 1868. When he was a child, his parents passed away. In his young life he worked as a cabin boy, clerk and a personal assistant. Through the trial of his life he still achieved greatness.
Erick Xan died peacefully in Miami, Florida on Tuesday February 26th,2108 at the age of 105. Erick is survived by his parents Ana and Alberto; Selena Mendez; Jorge , Analy; Alexis. He is preceded in death by Analiese Sanchez.
At the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) they conducted a study on age-related cell damage
The Elwyn Program is a great program. I am very familiar with Elwyn and what they program for children with disabilities. My son receives speech therapy from the Elwyn Seeds program which is part of the Elwyn program for children under the age of five years of age, for his speech delay. I can say Elwyn have helped my son tremendously, to where his speech has improved. Not only Elwyn have helped my son, they also helped me, by teaching me all about Apraxia and what exercises I can do to improve his speech. In one year, my son went from not saying much to taking all of the time.
The life of an artist can be a difficult one. Many artists produce work for their own enjoyment or because it is their passion, but some are lucky enough to get paid for their work, enough to make it a legitimate source of income. Edward Elgar, a composer in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, was one of these artists. Although he composed music for enjoyment, he was popular enough in his day to make a living from his music, and his reputation continued to grow after his death, making his work a valued aspect of British culture today. Even though he was in the limelight during his lifetime, Elgar could put his heart and soul into his music, which ultimately reflected his mood and the mores of the Victorian and Edwardian eras he lived through.
In the Essay by Nicholas Carr, he discusses whether Google is an impediment on our society or not. From Carr’s perspective Google is representing technology as a whole. He argues that it is handicapping us by causing individuals to stray away from doing their own research. There are many different ways this argument could be gone about and everyone is entitled to their opinion, therefore in my opinion I disagree with Carr. I do not believe that the advancements in technology is making us lazy as a nation. Growing up in Atlanta comes with many perks. You are given the experience of always having something to do, it is the one of the leading cities for young businessmen and women, and you are always up to date on the new societal trends. I love everything about living in Atlanta, I could not imagine living anywhere else. Along with the amazing aspects in regards to this city, there are also downfalls about living in such an overly-populated area. There are currently over five million people living in the Atlanta metropolitan area.
Ellko is an Internet sensation who is known for creating the Coca Cola hair rinse technique. She has recently shown people how to do another very simple hairstyle. You can create bouncy curls without using any heat. The only things that you need are a few hair pins, hair spray and hair ties. This is an overnight hairstyle. The first thing you will need to do is lightly wet your hair. After that, you will need to part your hair into small sections.
People are more aware about their fat burning, energy boosting and etc. From model to bodybuilders, everyday working professionals who want to achieve cutting, searching for body supplements. A person who wants to begin intake of this supplement should be consistent on understanding the benefits. Clen is a formulated injectable treatment designed to achieve various health related issues like breathing disorders, asthma and etc. The primary purpose of clen is to increase the beta 2 receptors. When this occurs, the internal body temperature will be increased by boosting the cellular heat. This takes place inside of cellular mitochondria. The cells are more responsible for heat production inside of the body.
The Fennec Fox, native to North Africa and the Middle East, isn't currently considered an endangered species, but its territory is under threat from tourism and development. The Fennec Fox is considered one of the 15 cutest endangered animals.The Fennec Fox is my favorite animal because it is adorable, it adapts to its environment, and its strong loyalty to it’s family.

C. Elegans is a non-parasitic round worm (nematode) found in locations rich with nutrients and microorganisms, since it feeds on bacteria. This organism is commonly used as a model for testing ideas related to aging, genetics, and drug response. This is because the genome sequence is very similar to that of a human since according to McDonnell Genome Institute, “About
Messiah received its world premiere in Dublin in 1742, during the Christian season of lent. The inspiration for Messiah came from a scholar and editor named Charles Jennens, a devout and evangelical Christian deeply concerned with the rising influence of deism and other strains of enlightenment thought that he and others regarded as irreligious. Drawing on source material in the King James Bible and The Book of Common Prayer, Jennens compiled and edited a consise distillation of Christian doctrine, from Old
One of the underlying assumptions is, aging is regulated by genes, and overexpression of sir2 in yeast leads to an increase in lifespan. Another assumption is, aging is a universal and genuine process and its mechanisms are conserved in all organisms. Consequently, researchers specifically examined the dosage of sir2 proteins in C.elegans. Moreover, it is also assumed that all the animals tested, are under
Since the questions like "what is aging? Why and how we age? Can we prevent aging?" keep spinning in my head and pushing me forward to specialize in molecular biology and genetics so that I can join with research on aging and understand its mechanism. I want to, therefore, after graduation as a short-term goal, work as a research assistant at the European Research Institute for the Biology of Ageing at the University of Groningen,
