                                                                 My Three Apps


http://yobongo.com/

Yobongo is an app where you can chat to people online just like skype. I think you have to buy the app, but it is really fast, you talk to people instantly, I think this app is cool, and neat, and probably better than skype. This app lets you to talk to people face to face around you instantly, and it is for iphones, apple technology too!


http://slidebomb.com/sbo_home.php

Slide Bomb is a site where you can make slides, just like power point or keynote. Slide Bomb let's you put your on photos on each slide, titles, and description of course. This app is free, and you just need to make an account fast and sign in. You can share on youtube, Facebook, embed, and do lots of things like share it with your friends I find this app unique.

Merriam Webster's Dictionary is a dictionary where you can type in a word and it defines it, you can also get it to pronounce the word to just like google translator. This tool is also a thesaurus, and also it can translate words from different languages to english well at least spanish. There are tons of definitions, and words that you can find, and see what it means. One more thing is you can look at nouns, verbs, adverbs, or whatever of a word this online dictionary tool is big, and the best one yet.

Should we donate frozen embryos left over from in vitro fertilization to science?

In vitro is the process of collecting eggs from a donor and fertilizing them with sperm. During this process extra eggs are left over which will be discarded.

With all the research they’re actually discovering that embryos is probably better to use frozen than fresh, which are non-frozen embryos.

I believe since life was given in the vitro fertilization process the extra embryos can be used for science. I do think they should be used for humans, but the extra ones should be used for science for lots of different reasons.

The embryo might have a cure, or do something important. The embryo is already frozen and if were used for something else like for someone to have a baby, it will probably won’t grow or develop, that is what I think of it, even though it’s not true. All though, if it is cold, then you will think it will be warm. I think it will not grow or even form in baby in those cases.

The embryo is freezing cold which might affect development of the embryo. So that is why it should be used for science, because scientists do lot’s of research and I am sure these embryos will be beneficial to them, and maybe these embryos will actually be really important if there is lots of research.

Chapter 6             Making A Decision For Genetown Project

I am not in favour in the $150 million biomedicine facility because it is too expensive; it would be better to put the money towards other type of technologies.

They should use an existing facility somewhere else. I understand if they used that money towards something more important than a big building so they can save human lives, which is really important. I agree with the curing with the stem cells, because stem cells are a lot of different types of cells and that is what you need to cure hurt embryos. If there are different types of cells then it will have all the parts it needs, which will be in the cells. The cells will form the body and have the body living, but you would need well working stem cells, and powerful technology. If they use there money to make technologies then everything will be better and they can find more ways to cure them easier.

So my opinion will be no, but I agree with stem cells. The only thing with stem cells is, if you build you need technologies that will cure them better, and easier, which will be less of a risk. The stem cells might not function or develop to cure an embryo so with more efficient tools it will do so. If they find more research then they can cure embryos more efficiently and even more diseases like cancer, so there won’t be lots bad things and dying all around the world.

That is the way I agree if they put there money towards technologies and research harder so they can find cures and stop these injuries from coming to humans.

The Cell Cycle is really Important

The Cell Cycle is so important, because it has the three important cycles of reproduction.

1) Interphase: Is the stage where cells carry out the important functions for it's survival, and cells that divide prepares for reproduction.

2) Mitosis: Duplicates the cells contents of the cells nucleus into two equal parts.

3) Cytokinesis: Separates the two nuclei and cell contents into two daughter cells.

Interphase is the longest stage of the cycle which is when a cell carries out it's various functions within the organism. In the first phase of interphase a cell increases in size and makes the proteins and molecules necessary for the cell to function, and some organelles begin to duplicate. DNA copies or makes a replica of itself in a process called replication. It replicates itself by the DNA molecule that unwinds, and the steps of the DNA ladder breaks apart. Each side becomes a pattern or template on which a new side forms. Replicating DNA ensures that newly formed cells will have an identical copy of the genetic information contained in the normal DNA molecule. Then it grows, and grows, then it is active making materials such as proteins for the new cells to form after the cytokinesis stage. Mitosis is the next stage and it is usually the shortest. It is the process where the contents of a cell's nucleus divides. It divides in stages of the early prophase, late prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. The last part of the cycle is the cytokinesis which separates the two nuclei into two daughter cells, and the new cells are identical to the parents cells that they have in there body.

Brandons Gentic Pictures Traits

My earlobe is a free earlobe not attached lobe that some people have. This trait comes from my mom and my dad.

 I do not have a white forelock on my forehead. This trait comes from my mom, and dad, but my dad I think has a little bit of one.

I have little bit of a dimple on my face, like some people do.
This trait comes from none of my  parents, but technically really I don't have fully dimples so that part is from my parents no dimples, but I still do a bit.

My thumb is curved, and has a big bend in it. None of my parents have this trait so.

My both baby fingers are curved a lot which is pretty normal. None of my parents have this trait too.











       

My big hands do not have mid-digit hair. I got this trait from my mom I do not no about my dad but he is a man and I am a boy so he might have it and I might have it when I grow up too.

My 2nd toe of my foot is not longer than the big one even though it looks like it though. This trait comes from both my parents.

My tongue can curve and fold up which is cool. This trait came from my mom.
