Clone Cloning is defined by Webster is “a cell, cell product, or organism that is identical to the unit or individual it was asexually derived” (Webster 150). The actual process of cloning is considerably easier because of trial and error. This process can be helpful and can be deadly in the right hands. In this light, the ethics of cloning has, is, and will be one of the hottest topics of all time. The clone has many different meanings in the modern world. The past identified a clone as something that that was copied from an original item or product. The term “The real McCoy” is an allusion to a patented train system, which everyone wanted but they did not want to buy that specific one. Nowadays the clone is an animal that has an identical DNA sequence to the donor of the DNA. The reasons for cloning is as varied as there are definitions. Many people would like to have the perfect child. Others can only have a baby by using cloning processes. Some believe that clones should be raised for their organs thus eliminating waiting lines for transplants since you get a genetically identical organ. There are several examples of cloning today. Dolly was the most popular since she was the first publicly announced cloning success. She was “born” on February 23, 1997. Bacteria are another example of cloning. They reproduce asexually and are identical to the original cell. This is used to our advantage by splicing specific strands of DNA into such bacteria so they b...
Hemophilia is a genetic disorder in which the blood does not clot normally. It’s a rare bleeding disorder that has been happening since ancient times. Men are the ones mainly affected by it. One in five thousand men born each year have Hemophilia. Yet women can be carriers and just like men, they can suffer from symptoms too. Women can only have Hemophilia if their father does and mother is a carrier, it’s uncommon but can happen. Hemophilia affects all races and ethnic groups. It’s all based on your family tree. A man with Hemophilia will pass the gene down to his daughters, leading to them becoming carriers. A woman with the gene has a fifty percent chance of passing the gene down on to her sons. If there was no family history of Hemophilia but the woman is a carrier, a son could possibly be the first one in the family to have it. If there’s one thing for certain about hemophilia is that it does not discriminate against anyone. Hemophilia has affected royalty as well as high and low class men all throughout history.
Throughout the book Lady Brett Ashley is portrayed as an attractive British lady who loves to drink. Brett states that she loves Jake but her actions prove the opposite. For instance, in a conversation that Jake and Brett have Brett confesses to Jake that she would “tromper [him] with everyone” (62). This portrays that Brett doesn’t really love Jake because she is only interested in sex. True love is depicted as loving a person for who they are no matter what obstacles, disabilities or problems their love could face. Brett confesses to Jake about hurting him and not being faithful to him. This would make Jake desperate and create a sense of not wanting to be with her anymore. Brett warns Jake of her infidelities and her lack of commitment to keep a relation...

A person with hemophilia faces great problems. Any little scrap or cut even burse can give the person a hard time. With this condition a person faces prolonging bleeding. Surgery or evening getting a tooth pulled isn’t a great idea. This condition causes the blood clotting process to slow down. If you have this disorder you’ll be sure to know. You have be playing a street game of football one minute fall and scrap you’re your knee the next. And be hospitalizing at the end of the day. Even serious complication can result in bleeding into the joint, muscle, brain or other internal organs (U.S. National Library of Medicine, 2012) . You may not know if you have hemophilia until abnormal bleeding occurs after a serious injury or surgery. This may be hard for someone to take in.
First, what exactly is cloning? In biology, cloning is used in two contexts: cloning a gene, or cloning an organism. Cloning is the reproduction of a human or animal whose genetic substance is identical to an existing being, such as an embryo or fetus. This is reproductive. Cloning a gene means to extract a gene from one organism and insert it into a second organism. Cloning an organism means to create a new organism with the same genetic information as an existing one. This is therapeutic.

Hemophilia is an inherited disease which slows the blood clotting process due to missing or reduced clotting factor proteins. Although uncommon, it is possible for Hemophilia to be acquired if the body produces antibodies that attack clotting factors. Only 30% of Hemophilia cases are due to spontaneous mutations. Hemophilia is a rare disorder. Approximately 1 in 5000 males has Hemophilia. The disorder is much more common in males than females. It is estimated that over 400000 individuals worldwide (.006% of the world’s population) have Hemophilia (National Hemophilia Foundation). Individuals with Hemophilia do not lose blood at a faster rate than others but they do bleed for longer. Small cuts and bruises are not usually life threatening but any serious injury or invasive surgery has the potential to be life threatening because of this disorder. Hemophilia can also cause internal bleeding, which can cause organ or tissue damage. This can be life threatening as well. There are two types of Hemophilia. Hemophilia A is due to the individual producing low levels of clotting factor VIII while Hemophilia B is due to the individual producing low levels of clotting factor IX. Clotting factors are proteins which interact with platelets so that clots can be formed. Clotting factors allow the platelets to clump together to seal cuts and tears in blood vessels to prevent excessive bleeding. Hemophilia can be mild moderate or severe depending on the amount of clotting factor in the blood. Individuals with mild Hemophilia have 6% to 49% of the normal amount of clotting factor. Individuals with moderate hemophilia have 1% to 5%, while those with severe have less than 1% of the normal clotting factor (National Hemophilia Foundation). Indivi...
Fog systems can be applied also for cooling heat exchangers with large boosting, air-cooled compressor, and any additional processes that could take advantage from evaporative cooling with large-scale (Smithco, 2005).
This paper looks at the different types of fog in the United States, the conditions needed to produce fog, the measures the government takes to reduce fog related accidents and their effectiveness. The purpose of this paper is to bring awareness to people who reside in places with fog as well as continue the conversation on how to better reduce fog related accidents.
Secondly I will talk about the causes and incidences of hemophilia. The immediate cause of hemophilia is the deficiency of a coagulation factor, used in blood clotting. "Some of the complications of having this disease are: dangerous bleeding episodes, permanent joint damage, and the risk of contracting HIV through a blood transfusion" (Hemophilia 2).
Breaking Bad, the television realm based around Walter White, a high school chemistry teacher with a knack for cooking Methamphetamine, captures its audience with twisted plotlines and senseless conflicts. Plain old suburbia gets a makeover when good crosses over to the dark side and the desert becomes Walt’s cooking ground. In this television drama, producers cross the normal life of a middle-aged man with cancer and illegal drugs, a duo that is screaming for trouble.
In a slatted, counter-current cooling tower, warm water enters the top of the tower and flows down a series of slatted inserts inside of tower. An air source is introduced at the base of tower, which flows up the tower. As the air interacts with water flow on the slats, the temperature differences causes evaporation. Water’s change from a liquid to a gas phase requires a large amount of energy, approximately 2326 kJ/kg at atmospheric conditions, which provides a cooling effect to the water [3].
Hemophilia is a rare genetic blood disease characterized by the inability or impairment of blood to clot or coagulate when a blood vessel is broken. This inherited disease is caused by an insufficiency of blood proteins, known as factors, which participate in blood clotting often by sudden gene mutation. Hemophilia can be characterized into three distinct types, including Hemophilia A, Hemophilia B, and Hemophilia C. Biologically, hemophilia is a unique genetic disorder that
