those in favor of and those against human cloning. Those who advocate for human cloning take up the cause for research and gene therapy. They also draw attention to various medical benefits such as the overcoming infertility and treating inherited diseases better. They would say there are no moral issues regarding individuality because identical genes do not equate identical personalities or experiences. In contrast, those who oppose this technology cling to the moral reality of human nature and individuality

The following text considers the issues that arise from the static storage model. By looking at mechanisms of death which occur in cells and taking human memory as an example of labile storage, static memory is posited to be a problematic model. A link is traced between cellular death mechanisms and memory transmission (mutations), and the new developments in synthetic DNA storage. As the near future nature of truly embodied data stored in DNA is thought of within the static storage model, I use

In 1976 John Moore, a surveyor on the Alaskan pipeline, found out he had a rare cancer called hairy-cell leukemia, and had to have his spleen removed. Moore went to regular checkups after the survey thinking it was routine. He did not know his cells were very rare, and his doctor had tried to patent his cells even though he signed a statement saying that he couldn't. This sparked the tissue rights movement which still continues today. When people get tissue or blood taken, scientist can use them

Technology is developing every day. The automobile was revolutionary, and then they introduced the plane. Cell phones can connect us with people around the world. Self-driving cars are in development today! Revolutionary inventions are the expectation nowadays, but a new discovery is sparking controversial questions in the science world. Is it acceptable to alter a baby’s genes to make it a better human? Genes are the instruction book of the body, and they determine everyone’s attributes and how

Ethics of Genetic Engineering Within the last two decades scientists have developed several new techniques, which manipulate and alter the genes found in the cells of living organisms. This wonder of the century, genetic engineering has turned heredity --the passing of inheritable characteristics from parent to off spring- from a natural, random event into a process that can be artificially controlled and exploited. It has the potential of giving humanity unprecedented power over life itself

Cystic Fibrosis Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited disease that affects the lungs and digestive system (National Heart, Blood, and Lung Institute, 2013). CF is caused by mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene located on chromosome 7q31 (Beery & Workman, 2012, p. 192). More than 1600 different mutations in this gene have been identified, but 70% of cystic fibrosis patients have the amino acid ΔF508 defect. This mutation occurs when the CFTR protein is missing

limb. Instead, a non-segmented and non-functional cartilage spike is developed at the site of amputation. Recent advances have indicated the use of tissue progenitor cells for cell replacement therapy. Here, we highlight recent work that promotes limb regeneration in post metamorphic frogs employing the use of larval progenitor cells transplanted in the amputation sites for replacement therapy. The addition

Intro Selective breeding is evolution by human selection. You take two animals with good genes and breed them to achieve a desired phenotypic or genotypic result. The result should end up with the offspring having equally good genetics with its parents or better genetics. It is a carefully planned selection oriented toward a decided standard. This needs great care in selecting animals with specific qualities. Selective breeding, as an example the Belgian blue cow is breeding a trait by human choice
