Watch the following video called "Human Genome Project Video" (https://fod.infobase.com/OnDemandEmbed.aspx?lti=1&token=30037&wID=97629&loid=0&w=400&h=300) then answer the following question in one paragraph each with evidence from the film to support your answers.
5) Answer in one paragraph and using the video provided to answer the following: There are companies now allowing people to clone their deceased pets. How do you feel about this? What are some good points and bad points to this service provided by some companies in your mind?
6) Answer in one paragraph and using the video provided to answer the following: There is rumor that humans are being cloned in other areas of the world. What ethical considerations can you think of that could be a problem with this type of medical experimentation? What is your opinion?
Damien and Jessica are friends that are interested in proteomics. One day Damien and Jessica go to a proteomics lab to have their proteome (all proteins in body) analyzed. The analysis shows that there is a difference in one amino acid within each of their hemoglobin proteins. However, both of their hemoglobin proteins appear to be functioning properly. They both come to you and ask you the significance of this finding, what do you tell them? Should they be worried? Provide a detailed rationale.

When the Oxford team of Ernst Chain and Nor- man Heatley had laboriously collected their first two grams of penicillin (probably no more than 2% pure!), Chain injected two normal mice with 1 g each of this preparation, and waited to see what would happen. The mice survived with no apparent ill effects. Their boss, Howard Florey, was furious at what he saw as a waste of good antibiotic. Why was this experiment important?

- Before this experiment, Dr Merrick didn’t know whether the OBP that he cloned was a type of myoglobin or hemoglobin from mammoth. From his data, he is now quite sure that OBP cannot be myoglobin from mammoth. How does he know? Explain your reasoning.arrow_forwardHow was this wrong? Could someone show me to correction :)arrow_forwardOne experiment that showed the DNA carried genetic information was the "Transformation" experiment by Avery, McCarty, and MacLeod where they injected mice with non-pathogenetic bacteria that had been incubated in the remains of pathogenic bacteria. What did they find when they incubated non-pathogenic bacteria in just the protein from the pathogenic bacteria? In this case there was no transformation They found that the non-pathogenic bacteria were transformed into pathogenic bacteria In this case the mice were sickened but did not die They found that some of the protein could cause transformation but other proteins could notarrow_forward
