How does bankruptcy affect individuals financially now and in the future?

If you are facing bankruptcy you likely have many questions in your mind. One of those is probably going to be how will this affect me financially. In the short term you will feel relief.

What do you think about cloning?

I guess cloning is something like making a exact copy.Cloning in computers or tech. means that you create a clone disk of one disk and run program using the clone.

Cloning also means hacking into telephone systems and cloning someone's phone.

That means you clone your phone to act like the other person's.

How could cloning help infertile couples have children?

Cloning can help infertile couples to have 'children' but as kid-twin of the mother or the father. Children would be genetically brother or sister of the either parents.

P.S. - Cloning needs somatic (body) cell chromosome unlike in natural births (requiring gametes - reproductive cells).

Why cloning is wrong?

Cloning raises ethical concerns related to individuality, potential harm to animals, and the implications for society. It has the potential to infringe on the uniqueness of individuals and raises questions about the welfare of cloned animals. Additionally, concerns about cloning's impact on society, such as issues related to identity, family relationships, and the environment, make many people question its ethical implications.

What is impossible for humans to do?

Humans can't fly or breath underwater, without mechanical assistance.

Humans can't go more than 7 days without food or water in normal temperatures.

Humans can't survive in extended exposure to temperatures below -40C or above 60C.

Antibiotic in gene cloning?

If antibiotic resistance is added to the gene being cloned, antibiotics can be used to isolate the transformed bacteria (ones with the gene being cloned) by killing off all non-transformed bacteria, that don't have the antibiotic resistance.

There is a chance that the non-transformed bacteria can mutate to develop antibiotic resistance.

Statistics about cloning?

4 out of 12 birth mothers died and it took 276 embryos to make Dolly, the first cloned sheep.

What risk is there for a species that only reproduces by cloning?

As all the cloned individuals are identical they have exactly the same strengths and weaknesses. If the environment changes rapidly in a way that makes it harder for them to survive then most or even all individuals may be eliminated before any evolved better ways to survive in the changed environment.

In species that have other means of reproduction available their populations have greater diversity in strength and weaknesses, so there is a greater chance that some individuals will already be able to better survive in the newly changed environment. Those individuals will pass on their traits to the next generation.

What are the economic advantages of cloning crop plants in tissue culture?

basically yeah the economic advantages of cloning crop plants in tissue culture is that its pretty cheao and easy to do innit.

What are some birth defects cauced by human cloning?

lung problems,heart defects,nonfunctioning immune system,kidney failure,and th list goes on....

What is the theme of oryx and crake?

People do even favour that which they are good at - even if it meaningless or extremely detrimental to themselves or others. Nothing succeeds like success.

What are some good points about exercise and the environment?

what are some good points about exersize <-- you spelt exercise wrong and urmm ... it stops you from gettign obese and it can stop you from developing some kinds of cancer and it will stop you from going bald :O

Is narcissism related to commitment issues?

Narcissists have a whole lot of quirks wrapped up inside of them and yes, one of them is commitment issues. They are so into themselves that they break every rule in the book pertaining to the feelings of mankind. Stay clear! Usually these people have to be "stroked" constantly to enhance their egos and they also feel they are better than everyone else. They feel they are smarter, are better looking and have all the answers in the universe. They are perfectionists (only in their own mind) and they sincerely believe that anyone that can possibly become close to them is the lucky person. That's why it gives them great pleasure to break-up the relationship before the other person does. Marcy My N did not have commitment issues, more he was always talking about marriage and he had children. It was him to bring up commitment as something he wanted. Then again, he also liked to talk and never show things. I wondered sometimes if his want for commitment was simply to rope me. I think they may say they want it, but never actually follow through. In my case there definitely seemed to be a link. My N had strongly hinted that he also wanted to get married when I fell pregnant (not accidentally but after a discussion). But when I brought it up very carefully after having our baby he completely denied the fact it had been on the agenda, despite me clearly pointing out conversations when we had discussed it when he denied saying the things I knew he had said (few women forget things like that I feel!) This seemed to kick start many of our problems as when I tried to express my hurt over the fact I felt confused and mislead about his intentions, (we had already discussed trying for another baby and I could not understand how he could be happy to have a child with someone and yet not marry them unless he was anti marriage which he was not) he got angrier and angrier and started then saying that he had decided that my personality wasn't what he wanted in terms of a future partner and he would need to see changes before considering me as a wife!

Is cloning taboo?

Cloning is considered a taboo in the sense that no human should have the power to do what "god" does. Cloning happens naturally in nature when identical twins are born, but that is the only situation where it is present.

What is TA cloning vector?

TA Cloning is one of the most popular methods of cloning the amplified PCR product using Taq and other polymerases. These polymerases lack 5'-3' proofreading activity and are capable of adding adenosine triphosphate residue to the 3' ends of the double stranded PCR product. Such PCR amplified product can be cloned in a linearized vector with complementary 3' T overhangs.

TA cloning is brought about by the terminal transferase activity of certain type of DNA polymerase such as the Taq polymerase. This enzyme adds a single, 3'-A overhang to each end of the PCR product. As a result, the PCR product can be directly cloned into a linearized cloning vector that have single base 3'-T overhangs on each end. Such vectors are called T- vectors. The PCR product with A overhang, is mixed with this vector in high proportion. The complementary overhangs of a "T" vector and the PCR product hybridize. The result is a recombinant DNA, the recombination being brought about by DNA ligase.
