What are the biological concepts and processes relating to xenotransplantation?

It is a hard application; Easy to find opinions and ethical issues but very hard to find concepts and processes. Xeno- refers to Tissues, so concepts and processes include Tissue typing, Immuno-suppressants, Tissue engineering, and Genetic Modification.


What types of jobs in the engineering & science sector could I get with a degree in biology?

Nowadays, biology is integrated in a lot of engineering and science fields. You can find a job in genetic engineering, space studies, pharmaceutical companies, or as a lecturer if you are into teaching.


On what molecule would you find the code?

The genetic code, which determines the sequence of amino acids in proteins, is found on the molecule called DNA. This code is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) before being translated into proteins.


How Genetic engineering and utilitarianism work?

Genetic engineering uses genetic material harvested from foetal stem cell. These stem cells can be acquired from 'spare' or 'waste' IVF embryos; aborted foetuses; and cloned embryonic material. The ethical debate centres around the sources of stem cells. Utilitarianism would look favourably upon Genetic Engineering, as Somatic therapy can be used to find many cures for various diseases, therefore achieving the greatest good for the majority of people. As this teleological argument focuses on consequence and the greatest good for the greatest number, it could be argued that the decision to fertilise an egg by Genetic engineering in the process of IVF for example is moral, as the happiness of the couple outweighs that of the embryo they are discarding. Embryo experimentation has the potential to find cures to many serious and currently incurable diseases, such as Alzheimer's; Huntingdon's; diabetes; Parkinson's. This potential has led to increased support from the utilitarian approach for its authorisation. As a result of the fact that the foetus is destroyed after 'engineering' at 14 days (before it becomes 'sentient') means Utilitarian arguments are in favour of it.


Where can someone find chemical and engineering news?

You can find chemical and engineering news on the website CEN which stands for Chemical and Engineering News. This website was made specifically for the news of chemicals and engineering and only that.


What is a potential benefit for the environment that stems from genetic engineering?

From the anedotal evidence, potential benefits for the environment of genetic engineering are difficult to find. There have been promises of less chemicals in the form of pesticides being needed for GM crops, but that just has not been shown to be true. Also, "unintentional" cross-breeding of GM varieties with non-GMO varieties, including organically grown crops, has been shown to be occurring.

How is genetic engineering and Genocide related?

Genetic testing and genetic engineering are not related. Genetic testing is looking at the chromosomal constitution of an individual and determining if they have a genetic disorder. Genetic engineering on the other hand, is a much larger avenue and is almost a science in itself. This area of molecular biology deals with inserting foreign genes into organisms in order to increase yield or produce novel products. Genetic testing is useful to test if an unborn fetus has any genetic diseases. It is more of a diagnosis-based field. It can also be used to look at the chromosomes of an affected individual and their relatives to determine the cause and nature of a genetic disorder. Genetic engineering however, has applications like genetically modified foods, recombinant proteins and studying gene expression in a variety of different species.
