Genetic Engineering

the degree to which genes and environment interact to shape behavior.

Simple yeasts is the unicellular ascomycota that is important in food production and genetic engineering.

It depends on what therapy you mean. Some effective therapies include speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy and applied behavior analysis.

In the 1800s, the first special education programs were started. These weren't specifically aimed at autism (since autism wasn't identified as a distinct diagnosis), but certainly included some autistic students. Victor, the Wild Boy of Aveyron, who some historians suspect was actually an abandoned autistic child, received extensive education from Itard, one of the early names in special education.

Speech therapy can help a child learn to use language effectively. Some children remain nonverbal but are able to learn to use sign language or picture exchange communication. Some nonverbal adults speak with communication devices. The first book on speech disorder was written in 1882 by Samual Potter, and included several recommendations for treatment of various conditions.

Occupational therapy has apparently been around since the 1700s. Today, it is used for autism to help with the patient's fine motor control, the ability to control the physiologic movements of the body. This helps with an autistic person's self stimulatory behaviors and sensory seeking behaviors, and can also strengthen some of the muscles used when implementing precise tasks such as, say, properly holding a pen.

Physical therapy has been around about as long as medicine. It is used when a patient suffers an injury, but can be used to help an autistic person with what is referred to as gross motor control, the larger, more basic movements of the body, like walking. Some people with autism may have poor muscle tone or other motor problems. Physical therapy can help them with this.

Applied behavioral analysis evolved from research by individuals such as John B Watson and BF Skinner during the early 1900s. In the 1960s, Lovaas began using ABA in the treatment of autism, claiming in a landmark study that 47% of children treated with ABA were 'indinstinguishable from their peers'. This finding has never been replicated, but ABA has been shown to be a highly effective educational technique for autism. The basis for this therapy is the concept that systematic reinforcement of desired behaviors will make them more frequent.

Only in recent years have any of the above therapies been considered medically necessary and been therefore covered by medical insurance. Some insurance plans do not cover any autism therapies what-so-ever. Some plans will not cover therapies they deem to be educational, like occupational, physical and speech therapies, which all involve "learning" to do things differently. But all of the above have been shown to be effective.

There is also controversy regarding ethical concerns of autism treatment. While no one can argue that it's not a good thing to help a child gain important skills, many autistic self-advocates argue that therapies aimed at changing autistic behavior such as avoidance of eye contact and hand-flapping are unethical, since this behavior serves a purpose for the child and is not harmful to themselves or others. They contend that rather than seeking to teach an autistic child to behave normally, therapies should focus on helping the child function well in their own autistic way.

The nucleus.

Mitochondria also contain DNA, but not your whole genome. Your mitochondrial DNA comes only from your mother.

Genetics is important because it plays a key role in determining an individual’s physical traits, susceptibility to diseases, and response to treatments. Understanding genetics helps in predicting and preventing genetic disorders, as well as in developing personalized medicine for individuals based on their genetic makeup. It also aids in the study of evolution, population genetics, and the inheritance of traits across generations.

Not too much. Actually the genes are quite similar between human and other species. For example, there are 99.9% similarity between human being and ape. For human and pig this number should be around 99%.

A bio-tech crop simply means the crop has had its genetic code artificially altered for some purpose. Usually, this genetic engineering is intended to make the crop easier to grow in more hostile conditions, or to provide nutrients it would not otherwise provide in its natural, unengineered state. A number of domesticated crops have been genetically altered over the years including rice, corn, wheat and soybeans.

Although genetically engineering plants is a relatively new science, the age old art of plant domestication itself is a form of genetic manipulation, albeit a slow one. Whenever the first farmers began to selectively raise different plants based on their phylogeny (physical expression of an organism's genetic code) in order to increase their productivity, hardiness or flavor, what they were doing, in effect, was altering their genology (genetic coding) in the process. So, in a sense, all domesticated crops (and animals) can be classified as genetically engineered "bio-tech".

There is a debate across the globe as to whether intentionally altering a plant's genetic code, particularly to produce something natural selection never could, is a good thing or a bad thing. Opponents claim that if such crops were to be released into the world, they might quickly eliminate their non-bio-tech relatives, possibly causing the extinction of a necessary global resource and leading to widespread famine and social instability. Propnents of genetically engineered bio-tech crops, on the other hand, discount the danger posed by these products, claiming humanity has been doing this for centuries without any harm.

Only time will tell which of these positions is correct.

Chromosomes

Nucleic acids. Which are made of nucleotides.

Nucleotides make up DNA... Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine. These nucleotides are what make up the double helix of DNA. Adenine bonds with Thymine and Cytosine bonds with Guanine. Sugars and phosphates also make up DNA.

CDS means "coding sequence," i.e. the part of the gene that codes for a protein.

Bioinformatics studies computational algorithms and mathematical models that help identify regions in the genome that are likely to be CDS's.

Histones and DNA. DNA holds the genetic information. Histones are simply proteins which help organize DNA and compress it. DNA wraps around "bead-like" histones to make "beads on a string"

Hypertrichosis very rare disorder also called werewolf syndrome.

Other possible causes of microcephaly include infections during pregnancy (rubella, cytomegalovirus, toxoplasmosis), adverse effects of medication, and the excessive use of alcohol by the mother during pregnancy

This one is rather simple or rather difficult depending on what manner one is speaking in. If one tells you to do such a thing then perform thusly: look to the side of your body which is directed eastward while facing north. If you gain sense out of this then your are rather lucky, your search is complete and no more need be said. If not then read what follows. The "right thing" may be interpreted in various ways. One may see it as the "just thing", the "proper thing", the "ethical thing", the "aesthetic thing", the "holy thing", perhaps even the "unholy thing" and many many more. I cannot pretend to be so concrete as to chose which one is best, as one touches upon an answer it crumbles to your feet. Many philosophers have touched upon this issue. It was (according to some interpretations) the main focus of Kierkegaard's Either/Or. He concieved, in the first volume, (paraphrasing) that either you will or you won't, you shall regret both. The second volume was a bit more opptimistic: perhaps you will regret both, but is the fact that you made a decision that you may learn from that counts. Nietzsche would probably assure you that you will do the right thing if you believe that you are doing such. On this is must say that it is a very subjective thing and that in doing what is "right" you are the final judge (unless you are a theologian in which you are the final judge of whether or not your God(s) believe you did the right thing...). -QEM

If I have GOOD genes, and am not likely to end up with cancer, heart disease or other expensive types of medical conditions, why should I be required to pay the same rate for insurance as those who have a high likleyhood of getting such diseases?

Insurance is about probability and risk. Insurance companies pool a bunch of people together, determine the risk of a particular disease and calculate how much it will cost, then decide how much to add to the price of insurance to cover people for the disease. They are covering their risk.

It's the same with auto insurance. Mature, careful drivers are not charged as much for insurance as are immature or careless drivers. People who have been arrested for drunk driving are considered to be very high risk drivers and as such their insurance rates are very expensive. Do you think that careful drivers should pay as much as careless drivers? Careful drivers don't think so, just as people with healthy ancestors don't generally think that lower medical and life insurance rates are a bad idea if we aren't likely to get a disease.

FVB mice are often used in production of transgenic mice due to their excellent reproductive capabilities and nurturing characteristics. In addition, FVB mice have large embryos which makes them easier to manipulate for microinjection of transgenes.

Micro measurements are nessessery because DNA is so small and microscopic and other measurements are simply too large (they are bigger than the DNA).
