DNA Extraction Lab

Hello as you may know my name is cbgbyo65 and I am going to talk about a lab that I did In class.It was a DNA extraction lab where we would Put gatorade In our mouth and then spit it out into a test tube, and then put a little bit of alchohol in the test tube and shake.This would make your DNA visible in the test tube.This is a big part of genetics which is a really big topic right now because of stemcell research, and with president obama allowing it.My opinion on this topic is Shouldnt we be worrying about the economy right now Instead of stemcell research?

cystic fibrosis response

After reading a blog about cystic fibrosis I have learned that it is a horrible disease that effects your lungs, pancreas,respiratory system, and sweat glands.people that mostly get this are caucasians and here estimation for life span is only up to 37 years old.There are treatments for this disease but no cure yet.30,000 people die of this disease in the united states alone and 70,000 in the whole world.This can be a very painful disease and is very sad that people get it.I got this information from http://ashanima.blogspot.com/.
