Introduction This research task will be focusing on the synthetic substance “Anabolic Steroids” .The aim of the research task is to understand what effect the substance has on us humans and especially on the reproductive system in our bodies. Gym and Body building is becoming more of a fashion than anything else and can be referred to as the “modern drug” and just like when drug addicts have been using the same drug for a long period of time and don’t get the same feeling they move on to a stronger

The increasing demand for fish in the food industry has resulted in extensive overfishing in wild fisheries. This has caused widespread habitat destruction, overfishing, and an overall loss of biodiversity with both freshwater and marine ecosystems. To compensate for the issues surrounding industrial overfishing of wild populations, farmed fisheries in sheltered coastal waters, rivers, ponds and tanks were introduced. The innovation of genetically modified (GM) farmed-raised fish which possess traits

Results Overview of identified studies A total of 499 potentially relevant citations were identified through the search strategy on electronic data bases with other reference sources and information provided by relevant experts (Figure 2). 132 articles were collected as full text for quality assessment and inclusion. From the overall pool of full text papers, a total of 20 articles (n = 2450), received the minimum quality assessment score and met the inclusion criteria (Table 2,3,4). Of the 20 studies

The human genome is a vast sequence of nucleic acids consisting of adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine which are connected into a long polymer by a sugar-phosphate backbone. The entirety of the genome is approximately 3 billion base pairs which encodes for all functional proteins and RNA molecules needed for life. Remarkably, only a small fraction of the genome actually constitute genes; about 15% of the genome are genes or gene-related sequences, while 85% of the genome is noncoding (Krawczak

Before women like Bruce Jenner and Laverne Cox found the mainstream spotlight, gender and sexuality were both, and still are, very concrete ideas and those who didn’t conform to these ideas were considered taboo and more often than not shamed into hiding their sexuality and whom they were in order to fit in with the rest of the world. It was only recently that sexuality and gender identification became a more mainstream topic in the pop-culture world. Before Bruce and Laverne there was Ursula Le

On April 28, 2011 - the United States Appeals Court overturned the rule of a federal judge because of several issues that emerged with stem cell research being funded by the government. Although, the science of human embryonic stem cell is in its initial stages - there is much hope for scientific advancement due to the ability for human embryonic stem cells to grow into virtually various kinds of cells  Favorably, advocates for stem cell research and pharmaceutical companies strongly believe that
