Well, we have no idea in knowing if there is mtation after full development, even if it does happen. the government would keep it hidden. futhermore, i would say maybe, it could be a possible mutation. yet, people is still trying to find a real avian hybrid mutation. though i think most has fail, only coming up with a avian influenza virus. well, i cant really share my opinion about it because i am not a scientist. but i am clearly looking into it. but i dont see why there cant be a mutation, there was plenty of others. or it because the DNAs cant combine for a unknowing reason??

Is avian flu DNA or RNA?

The virus has DNA as its genetic material. More interesting, the DNA is single-stranded. "Parvo" is short for "parvovirus" and usually "canine parvovirus type 2."


How can you graft human and avian DNA?

No, the genetic make up of each species DNA are completely different so that it is not compatible for combination. Not to mention the obvious ethical and moral parameters that would be violated.AnswerI would have to say yes only because of the fact that our DNA is made up of our Genes and those only have so many vereations and there pourpos is determoned more by there place than there structre though i am not a genetisis AnswerI would have to agree with the person above me. I do think that it is possible to combine human DNA with avian DNA. Recently, this week, scientists in Taiwan combined the DNA from a Jellyfish with pig emryos. The baby pigs that were born growed completely green as Jellyfish do. So, why couldn't it be possible to combine human DNA and avian DNA? Nothing... it is completely possible, although, the risk may be high and the testing may be illegal. It is still theoretically possible. AnswerAt present, there are sheep with genetic markers to allow them to produce the protein for Black Widows' Silk. It works. Sheep DNA and spider DNA were combined. The problem is, it took many attempts to finally get the DNA combination right, in order to not produce massively deformed sheep. I'm sure many sheep were born with horrific mutations, or were still-born, or didn't live long after birth before they got everything right. To do experiments like that on humans would violate our twisted morality which states that we can mutilate "lower" animals, but not each other. So I don't see it happening anytime soon. And certainly not legally. i think its possible seeing how in Britain they were mixing a cows embryo with a human DNA its possibel if the brake through is a succes than we will probably be able to do it with other animalsI guess that humans would have the ability to put those genes together and the humans would survive, but it's still sort of immoral. Still, I wouldn't mind being part avian. Anyone know where I could give up my body for it?Answeri am currently doing research in the field of DNA recombination and can say with absolute certainty that it is possible. just to clear up a few things, unlike what others have said, our DNA is incredibly similar to other species. our DNA makes up genes, not the other way aroung (nucleotide base pairs make up our DNA). a lot of people don't realize it but DNA recombination is prevelent today, all of the insulin a diabetic takes is created by bacteria that have the DNA that creates insulin from a human. it fits perfectly. i take it you got this idea from the series Maximum Ride (I'm a fan), and the science in the book is completely real.


What is the common medical name of the flu?

'Avian Influenza' is not the scientific name, the scientific name is actually Orthomyxoviridae, Influenza Type A, subtype H5N1. The common names are: Avian Influenza, bird flu, and fowl plague.


Does the avian flu have a lytic or lysogenic cycle?

I believe it is lytic. Think: colds are fast acting; they don't sit in your cell for years on end. This means they are lytic (fast acting).


When was the dinosaurs around?

Non avian dinosaurs appeared during the Carnian stage of the Triassic period about 220 million years ago. They diversified in the Jurassic and even more in the Cretaceous, but they died out 65.5 million years ago. All non avian dinosaurs lived during the Mesozoic era, but birds, which are a group of dinosaurs, continue to exist today.
