High School grades do -- and don't -- affect one's ability to work. On the one hand, grades can reflect effort and knowledge. But, on the other hand, learning styles and many other factors can affect grades-- even when a person is intelligent and hard-working. As an example, the death of a parent can result in failing grades for a good year or so.

So grades do not impact the ability to work, as long as the person is hardworking and qualified to do the job for which they are hired. As an example, if you failed Spanish you probably shouldn't try to be a Spanish Interpreter.

Extract DNA from the cells of people who can make the digestion enzyme. Cut the DNA with restriction enzymes to cut out the gene that codes for the enzyme. Use gel electrophoresis to locate the gene. Then, use polymerase chain reaction to make copies of the gene. Choose a plasmid that has an antibiotic-resistance genetic marker, and cut the plasmid with the smae restriction enzyme use to cut out the hyman gene. Insert the copies of the human gene into the plasmids. Allow bacterial cells to take in the plasmids. Select for transformed bacteria by growing them in a culture containing the antibiotic. These bacteria will make the digestion enzyme.

to ensure the genes are identical

The Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act (GINA) was implemented in May of 2008 to prevent employers from discriminating based on genetic information. Employers are exempt if they hire less than 15 employees. GINA's health coverage non-discrimination protections do not extend to life insurance, disability insurance and long-term care insurance. It cannot apply to acts or omissions that occurred prior to GINA's effective dates.

yes if worked on plznts to consume more carbon dioxide

The incidence is 50 individuals per million live births.

Yes it is possible to reconstruct shredded documents however it is rather time consuming. However !!!,there is a new reconstructing skredded document software available for purchase/downloading at the website: www.unshredder.com many private investigation offices from all around the world are making very good and profitable use of this software which is supplied together with special paper trays and guiding. they also give good support and technical help !

mutation in the DNA order and sexual reproduction of the favorable animal in the ecosystem.

intersexuality, is the term for those with genital anomalies that many prefer to the term hermaphrodite or she male. This is a condition that does really exist however the slant that is put on it in the p*rn pages is definitely a lot of non sense. Have a read of the link below (Intersexuality) for more balanced information.

Genetic map is a graphic representation of a linkage group in the form of line which shows by points the sequence of the genes and the relative distances between the genes it contains. Genetic map is called a linkage map, or chromosome map.

You can get the reads associated with a particular individual from the 1000 genomes ftp site by looking at the sequence index file.

You can also get alignments for specific individuals. For this you need to look at the alignment index file.

There are also individual genotypes available for the individuals sequenced as part of the pilot study. These will be in VCF format

The 1000 genomes project doesn't provide assemblies for any of the individual sequenced.

This is a rather difficult question to answer. In theory it's possible.

A baby requires X and Y chromosomes. The Y chromosome is only found in males.

While it is possible to genetically engineer babies, they still need male genetic interaction. In theory it may be possible to genetically engineer the baby from one egg and sperm, then have the other partners genes engineered into the baby during growth in the womb.

You can't make a baby without sperm.

While in theory the above is possible, it has not been scientifically proven as successful.

The process I have described above is called artificial parthenogenesis. The method has been tested on insects and rats in a lab, both with varying levels of success and failure.

So far, unfortunately there has been no success with humans, but scientists are still researching, because they have managed to make it work in rats and insects. The problem is that human DNA is the most complex DNA structure on Earth. Even if an experiment is successful the resulting child would be under scientific observation for his/her life to ensure the process doesn't cause health issues, before the procedure is available to the public.

You should also bear in mind that genetic engineering is extremely controversial. One single slip-up during engineering will change the future of humankind.

One other thing you could try, is to have your parter donate her egg to you and have that egg fertilised by a sperm in your womb.

I advise you to speak to a fertility or family planning doctor about this, you never know what you might learn.

Wish you the best of luck.

A Quagga cannot be cloned because there are not any living animals in its species. The technology has not been invented yet for something to be cloned from DNA after it is extinct.

Remember that meiosis occurs during the production and maturation of gametes so it occurs very often! In males, it occurs virtually throughout their whole life and in females, meiosis I completes at every ovulatory cycle until menopause and meiosis II completes with fertilization.

The Hardy-Weinberg principle posits that in the absence of outside evolutionary forces, a population's alleles and genotype frequencies will remain constant. Biologists use this principle as the standard against which to test outside evolutionary forces on a population.

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.

It appears to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

The genes present in an organism's body or its genetic makeup is referred to as the genotype.
