For a science fair project, two students decided to repeat the Hershey and Chase experiment, with modifications. They decided to

label the nitrogenous base of the DNA, rather than the phosphate. They reasoned that each nucleotide has only one phosphate and two to five nitrogenous bases. Thus, labeling the nitrogenous bases would provide a stronger signal than labeling the phosphates. Why won't this experiment work?

Answer:

Explanation:

The aim of the Hershey and Chase experiment was to show that DNA and not proteins are the genetic material.

Proteins are made up of amino acids which also has a nitrogenous base. Since the whole point of the experiment was to differentiate between the two i.e. show which one is the genetic material, it would be impossible to differentiate between DNA and proteins if the nitrogenous base was labelled.

The steps of fracture repair include:

  • Hematoma formation.
  • Fibrocartilage Callus Formation.
  • Bony Callus Formation.
  • Bone remodeling.

<h3>What is a fracture?</h3>

A fracture is a complete or partial break in a bone. The causes of bone fractures include trauma, overuse, and diseases that weaken bones.

In this case, Kyndall was lucky because the fracture occurred about 3 inches below the epiphyseal plate as this means the fracture does not break through the bone at the growth plate.

An improperly treated growth plate fracture could result in a fractured bone.

Lastly, the type of fracture is a nondisplaced fracture is one in which the bone cracks or breaks but retains its proper alignment.

What causes over growth in humans
prohojiy [21]

Does your child seem much shorter - or much taller - than other kids his or her age? It could be normal. Some children may be small for their age but still be developing normally. Some children are short or tall because their parents are.

But some children have growth disorders. Growth disorders are problems that prevent children from developing normal height, weight, sexual maturity or other features.

Very slow or very fast growth can sometimes signal a gland problem or disease.

The pituitary gland makes growth hormone, which stimulates the growth of bone and other tissues. Children who have too little of it may be very short. Treatment with growth hormone can stimulate growth.

People can also have too much growth hormone. Usually the cause is a pituitary gland tumor, which is not cancer. Too much growth hormone can cause gigantism in children, where their bones and their body grow too much. In adults, it can cause acromegaly, which makes the hands, feet and face larger than normal. Possible treatments include surgery to remove the tumor, medicines, and radiation therapy.
