8 0

1932’s the year the Tuskegee Syphilis Study was initiated. This study created a very controversial issue because it was morally and ethically wrong on many levels. This study put human lives or human rights aside and without proper consent withheld treatment to those who needed them. Eventually, these caused the deaths or serious physical damages of a large portion of 399 men. Although, laws or outlines guiding ethical procedures for human experimtentation were not yet available during those times when the study was conducted, it is known and we are taught since we were all young that lying is in no way correct. Many believed that the study should have been terminated from the beginning taken that even if the doctors did not believe that the conducted study was morally and ethically wrong to lie just to get patients to participate in the study. From the beginning, the participants had the right to know what were the procedures given to them and at the same time they should have the knowledge on the complete processes the study will undergo. At the moment, protocols are made to mandate of putting human life above the scientific experiments. To ensure that human lives will never be put again in compromise, guidelines are implemented to make sure that studies like Tuskegee Syphilis Study will never happen again.

Several students have been practicing drawing their models of nucleotides. Whose model do you think is most consistent with the

RSB [31]

The first description of the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)chain was done by Watson and Crick in 1953, the nucleotides that constitute the DNA are four: cytosine (C), guanine (G), timine (T) and adenine (A). When doing a model is essential to remember that cytosine ONLY joins guanine and timine only link adenine, this is due to the size and chemical properties of each molecule. Later, another related and similar and molecule was discovered, the ribonucleic acid or RNA, which also is constructed by nucleotides.

In both cases, the nucleotides are compound of 3 main components: a nitrogen base, a pentose and a phosphate. When the molecule lacks the phosphate group, is called nucleoside. Depending on the chain ( DNA or RNA) the nitrogen base derives from purine (adenine and guanine) or pyrimidine (cytosine or timine) just in the RNA instead of timine is uracil (U)

The union is established between adjacent molecules through the phosphate, while among each other through the nitrogen base-remember C=G and T or U=A. The core of each molecule is the pentose. Therefore the best representation of the molecule is attached
