25 Results for chemistry

Throughout the years, many unknown questions have been answered through the use of science. The atomic bomb, which ended World War II, was explored through physics, and other discoveries such as the atom, DNA, and photosynthesis have facilitated technological advancements for society. While all typ...
Rosalind Franklin was born in London, England on July twenty-fifth, nineteen hundred and twenty. She was raised in a well-to-do Jewish family and that provided her with an exceptional educational back round in Physics and Chemistry at St. Paul's Girls' School and Cambridge University. Franklin pro...
Deoxyribonucleic Acid, DNA for short, is a molecule that has been one of the biggest mysteries of modern science. What is its structure? Does it contain the genetic code and if it does how is it used? These are some of the questions that puzzled scientist in the early fifties. Many scientists tried ...
FORENSIC SCIENCE Forensic Science, also known as Forensics, is the application of science to law to interpret clues for crime investigation. The earliest forensic scientists were physicians who were called upon to give an opinion as to the cause of death in individuals. Now most of the forensic ...
What is life?" The question has been asked innumerable times but has been answered to the satisfaction of few. Science is based on the experience that nature gives intelligent answers to intelligent questions. To senseless questions, nature gives senseless answers - or no answers at all. If nature h...
Biology Assignment Frederick Griffith is a scientist that was trying to discover a vaccine for pneumonia. The reason for his experiment was to see if injections of heat killed virulent bacteria would kill the mice. He found that the mixture of live non-virulent bacteria and heat-killed bacteria...

I. Description A. Nature of Work Marine Biology also refers to Biological Sciences or Biological Oceanography. Marine Science is the general term for research conducted in oceans and coastal or inland waters connected to the sea. This particular field is probably the best known to the public. Marine...
Introduction Achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant trait, however, it has a very high spontaneous rate of mutation (about 90%). It is the result from a single point mutation in Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 3 (FGFR3). In 97% of the patients, there is a Glycine to Arginine substitution at ...

Introduction Tourette's syndrome (TS) is a mental disease that affects 1 in 1000 boys and 1 in 2500 girls.(www.tourettes-syndrome.com) It is a worldwide disease affecting children from first to third world countries. It is found in the rich, the poor, the healthy, and the sick. The diseas...
Genetic Catastrophe "While the 20th century was shaped largely by spectacular breakthroughs in the field of physics and chemistry, the 21st century will belong to the biological sciences. Scientists around the world are quickly deciphering the genetic code of life, unlocking the mystery of b...
The methylation of DNA serves as one of the most crucial epigenetic modifications of modern day genetics. Methylation and demethylation of DNA have profound effects on cellular differentiation and processes such as transcription, gene expression, chromatin structure, and suppression of invasive and ...
Forensics is defined as the aplication of science to interpret clues for crime investigation. The earliest forensic scientists were physicianswho were called upon to give an opinion as to the cause of death in individuals. Now most of the forensic scientists are investigators that pick up clues at...

The remarkable feat of the discovery of the structure of DNA, in 1953, is usually associated with James Watson and Francis Crick. Maurice Wilkins also played a crucial role in this discovery, and he shared the 1962 Nobel Prize for Physiology/Medicine with Watson and Crick for the discovery. However,...
