One example of how applied science has had a direct effect on daily life is the presence of vaccines. Vaccines to prevent diseas

es such polio, measles, tetanus, and even influenza affect daily life by contributing to individual and societal health. What types are some examples of basic science research that would have made all of this possible?

Vaccines are a boon in eradicating various lethal diseases and increase the immunity of the people. The development of vaccines started with the understanding the cell itself, various pathways that regulate its fate. The immunology, a branch of biological science, gave the idea of the working of the defense or the immune system of the body, and of the various specia cells that function for it. This led us to the discovery of antibodies and antigens. Vaciines are artificial means of injecting antigens into the body to generate antibodies beforehand, so that the immune system remembers producing it at the time disease causing agent strikes us.

Thus, we can summarise that STEM research or core science research has led to innovations that have shaped our lives and lifestyle to contribute to an overall good social health.

If you have car sickness, but only when you look at a book or screen while its moving, is there an exact terminology for it?
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The exact terminology would be motion sickness, not car sickness.

Explanation:

Reading a book or using your phone while in or on any moving object can cause motion sickness.

With motion sickness your body is moving in space, such as in a moving car or on a boat rocking at sea, but your eyes aren’t getting the same information. Kind of like when you are reading while in a car: Your eyes are focused on the words, thinking you’re stationary, but the rest of your body is sensing the movement of the car.

Motion sickness is basically a sensory conflict.

Now there is something called cybersickness, which is almost the same as motion sickness but it pertains more to using/ watching moving pictures on a screen while your body is stationary.

It has opposite sensory effects than motion sickness, where your eyes think you are moving but your body is not.

A geneticist introduces a transgene into yeast cells and isolates five independent cell lines in which the transgene has integra
Zina [86]

Answer:

A) A transgene integrated into a heterochromatic region of the genome.

Explanation:

This is most likely the reason why the transgene is not expressed in the fifth cell line. It is likely that the transgene was integrated into a heterochromatic region of the genome. Heterochromatin consists of genetically inactive satellite sequences, and many of these are repressed to various extents. Moreover, because this is a tightly packed form of DNA or condensed DNA, it is inaccesible to polymerases and thus not transcribed.

Compare and contrast the reasons cell division is important for unicellular and multicellular organisms. 2. Provide an example o
Ganezh [65]

(1)

For unicellular organisms, cell division is important for the reproduction of the population, Unicellular organism mainly use cell division, also called binary fission, for pollution growth. This is because unicellular organisms are only composed of one cell.

Multicellular organisms use cell division for growth and reproduction. Cell division causes increase in the number of cells composing the organism hence its growth in size. Cell division is also used to create gametes that are used in reproduction by fertilization.

(2)

Even in fully developed organisms, cell division is important in tissue repair. In tissue homeostasis, there is a balanced rate of cell division and cell death .  An example in muscles. Due to the stress experienced by muscle cells, they usually have a lower life span and therefore the damaged cells are often replaced with new ones by cell division. This prevents tissue wastage.

(3)

Growth factors signal the growth of a cell. They usually bind receptors on the cell surface and indicate how the cell should grow and divide base don environmental stimuli. An example is during regular exercises. Growth factors indicate that the muscle cells should divide regularly and grow bigger to accommodate the higher stress in the muscles from the workout. This is how your muscles grow bigger and stronger with more exercise.  

(4)

Differentiation of cells occurs through the silencing of some gene allowing the cell to produce particular proteins (and other biomolecules) that align with its functions in the body. This especially critical in multicellular organisms.  An example is that while al the cells in your body have the same DNA, some cells differentiate into liver cells while others into lungs, stomach, heart, and etcetera.

What is the function of the water monitor lizards claws
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Claws. These strong, curved claws can tear flesh and inflict fearsome wounds. Water Monitors eat only meat and sometimes tackle prey nearly their own size. Claws may allow the Arboreal taxa to physically separate themselves from the larger monitors of the savannah by living in trees, eliminating them as competition and potential predators.
