Abstract Tooth Regeneration is a procedure in the field of stem cell biology. Regenerative medicine has always contributed significantly in the field of dentistry; however, research is still ongoing. Different methods and various types of cells are vital in teeth regeneration. Periodontitis and pulpitis disease destroys teeth with periodontal repair. Various techniques are used to aid in the repair process. They include; bone grafting and GTR. Tooth Regeneration
Although life is a continuous process, fertilization is a critical landmark as under ordinary circumstances, a new, genetically distinct human organism is thereby formed (O’Rahilly, Ronan & Muller, 1996). The development of a human being begins with the process of fertilization where two highly specialized cells, the spermatozoon from the male and the oocyte from female, unites to give rise to a new organism or new life, the zygote (Langman, 1975). Fertilization is also called as conception. Embryology
Diffusion and Osmosis Lab Report By: Jettica Williams BIOL 1107 Lab September 21, 2016 Prepared for Mrs. Fulford Lab Course Page Break The cell membrane act as a roadblock for cells. The cell membrane has a very hectic job. It restricts the access to what comes in and what goes out. The bond the membrane shares with others is the idea of accountability. The cell membrane regulates the deoxyribonucleic acid, enzymes, and it builds a pathways for any reaction such as metabolic. When
Rough Draft Did you know that the liver in the human body has the potential to regenerate after healing itself? It may seem hard to imagine, but the human body is a powerful thing. However, unfortunately, there are situations where a liver is damaged and cannot make this repair. With these medical cases, liver transplants are necessary. A lengthy wait list exists in America due to liver failure. “More than 16,000 Americans are waiting for a liver transplant, according to federal data from
In the eighteenth century novel, “Frankenstein”, people can learn of Victor Frankenstein’s vindictive scientific experiments and ways. One of his main experiments is when he discovered how to revive dead body parts. He tests and pokes, prods even, on a these dead body parts, which used to be someone’s arm or foot, just for fame and for the discovery so great in his eyes that is. Was disrespecting the dead really worth all that? What he did in his experiments, was it ethical is the real question
By Caolan Griffin Optical and non-optical telescopes are essential tools for the advancement of human research. Optical telescopes gathers and focuses light to create a magnified image or photograph, where as non-optical telescopes sense other things on the radio spectrum such as radio waves, gamma waves and X rays. Without non optical telescopes advancement’s in many areas such as medicine, television and radios would be impossible. Within the non-optical telescope branch there are many
Is there – or has there ever been – such a thing as a living fetus? Is the fusion of the sperm with the egg simply an embryo, devoid of value? Is it only truly viable when it is “capable of living, under normal conditions, outside the uterus”? (Breborowicz) Such questions have puzzled mankind for decades! While to some the questions may seem irrelevant, or even childishly simple, my parents have never quite let me forget that “it takes two to start an argument.” So for some, obviously, it is not
Stem Cell Therapy Research There are many pros and cons to stem cell therapy. If stem cell therapy can help patients who suffer from diseases that is no cure then why not use it? There have been cases that have helped patients with parkinson’s disease, autoimmune, alzheimers, heart attacks, etc.. Of course, like all other forms of medical treatments there are side effects: the cells not taking, sickness from the therapy, but the biggest is seen when embryonic stem cells are used. I personally
Cartilage regeneration The body has the ability to heal itself and restore certain cells and tissues that are damaged or lost, but it does not have the capacity for natural cartilage regeneration. When your skin is injured, for example, the body is able to naturally grow new skin cells to replace the damaged tissues. However, when your cartilage is damaged, there is no way for the body to naturally replace it. Cartilages are tough, flexible tissues found in many parts of the body. They serve two
Tissue Engineering is the science whose object is the physiological regeneration of a biological tissue in laboratory conditions (invitro) and directly in patients (invivo). The physiological regeneration is achieved through the cultivation of the patient's cells inside tissue scaffolds. The scaffolds are the "womb," inside of which the cells multiply and are supported, in order to regenerate tissue while, at the same time, the scaffold is decomposed in non-toxic products. The successful decomposition
Cell division and reproduction is vital for life. Without cell division, all living organisms would be incapable of reproducing or healing themselves. There are mainly two different types of cellular division: mitosis and meiosis. These processes are crucial to most organisms, and have many different functions. Mitosis allow organisms to grow and to replenish cells. Meanwhile, meiosis creates cells that allow organisms to reproduce sexually. Both mitosis and meiosis have various functions and phases
HCG and HCG Drops What is HCG? Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG) is basically a hormone that is produced by the cells of outer layer of fertilized embryo that is implanted in womb. In future these cells grow in to placenta. Levels of HCG are spotted in urine tests that is took after the fertilization of embryo. Pregnancy and hospital tests are based on the levels of HCG present in urine. Besides working as pro-hormone, HCG is also responsible maintenance of metabolism by releasing calories from

The question of whether humans develop according to nature or nurture is centuries old, with some of the earliest experiments carried out by King Frederick of Germany in the 13th century, when he rather crudely and cruelly attempted to establish what kind and manner of speech children would have if nobody spoke to them (Stone, 1973). Sadly, the children all died. It would seem unthinkable in modern times to expect a child to develop speech or language without being exposed to any, as we take it
Brain computer interfaces (BCIs) are an exciting way to control a device. After a number of decades of research and many improvements particularly made in recent years, we are still far away from having BCI applications used for daily tasks. Mainly they are applied for medical purposes and in research. One reason for this are their still very limited capabilities, far lower than those of common human device interfaces like button-based, touch-based, voice-recognition-based, or gesture recognition
in this developmental stage. Apart from the physical changes that are occuring in the body. Adolescence is also a time when risk taking behaviour happens. Peer relationships are more important now than ever before. There are also significant cognitive changes and the shift from concrete operations to formal operational thought. In Erik Erikson's theory, identity versus identity confusion are noted as his fifth developmental stage, this happens in adolescence. This point of developmental stage is
Introduction The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot is the story of Henrietta Lacks and her cells. When Henrietta was diagnosed with cervical cancer her cells were taken without her consent. These cells, unlike most cells, did not die in culture. Over the years, they have been constantly replicating and are used in experiments all over the world. These cells are known as HeLa. HeLa cells contributed lots of scientific knowledge, but were also a curse to the Lacks family. Key Idea

Introduction Imagine a world where being paralyzed does not necessarily mean that you will never walk
The Stem Cell Controversy What if I told you that scientist are on track of curing diseases such as Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis? We could end the suffering of thousands, maybe even millions with so called “incurable diseases”. Many diseases can become curable with the potential results of embryonic stem cell research. Embryonic stem cells are stem cells isolated from embryos during a specific age of development known as the blastocyst stage. These stem cells can regenerate themselves
A post mortem was previously used by neurologist in order for them examine the human brain and its many functions. However, technology increased accessibility to brain imaging techniques, as well as non-invasive ways to examine the brain in more detail (Morton, Sandhu, & Jones, 2016). MRI and PET Scans are the two modern methods of examining the human brain. Magnetic Resonance Imaging or MRI is a modern day technique which uses detailed computer imagery to identify body structures. An MRI image
