What else can I help you with?
What is all timers disease?
Actually, it's alzheimers. That might help!
How might the lack of genetic diversity found in populations of endangered species might hinder their recovery?
Lack of genetic diversity can becomes a problem when a species is hit with infectious diseases. If all the organisms are very similar, then it is very likely that they will all be affected by the same disease, thus destroying the species as a whole. In species with high amounts of genetic diversity, a disease may destroy a section of the population, but many individuals will be resistant to the disease.
Where would viruses most likely grow?
Viruses can only live in living organisms (viruses themselves are not actually living). They might infect cells in our body, such as throat cells (infection of throat cells causes sore throat).
What organism might successfully be able to insert human genes into the DNA of individuals who suffer from a genetic illness?
Viruses are generally used as that type of vector here.
Large scale study of proteins that contain the genetic material?
You might need to re-phrase your question. At the moment it sounds like you're talking about viruses?
What is an example of a disease that might be treated using gene therapy?
Cystic fibrosis is an example of a disease that might be treated using gene therapy. This genetic disorder affects the lungs and digestive system, and gene therapy could potentially be used to correct the underlying genetic mutation that causes the disease.
People who receive blood transfusions have some risk of being exposed to disease causing viruses. How might genetic engineering eliminate this risk?
Genetic engineering could eliminate the risk of disease-causing viruses in blood transfusions by creating genetically modified blood cells that are resistant to viral infections or by producing blood components from lab-grown cells that do not carry infectious agents. Techniques such as CRISPR gene editing could be employed to enhance the immune response of blood cells or to knock out genes that allow viruses to replicate. Additionally, synthetic biology could enable the production of safe blood components without the need for human donors, thereby completely removing the risk of viral transmission.
What factors have kept gene therapy from becoming an effective treatment for genetic disease?
There are a number of factors which have kept gene therapy from becoming an effective treatment for genetic disease. The viral rectors are the main problems which might make gene therapy to cause diseases.
What is genetic diseases?
A disease that you can transfer to your child by the DNA that you give.It is a disease that is encoded into your DNA and some of your old family members may show it or some of your kids might show it too.
Why might my doctor not give me any medications if I have a viral disease?
Viruses are not really alive and can't be treated by any antibiotics. Or there may not be any antiviral that will treat your virus.
Is Alzheimer's Disease a genetic disorder?
Yes and no. see if your grand parents had it, there could be a chance that you might develope alzheimer's disease, but you might also develope alzheimer's disease just from old age. So from that, under any circumstances, there is the chance of developing alzheimer's anytime after the 40-50 y/o mark.
Identify a disease or disorder and explain hoe it might be controlled by genetic engineering?
Cancer is a disease that might be controlled by genetic engineering by adding a type of gene into the person that stops the cancer.
