Genetic Disorder - Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus Syndrome
Genetic Disorder Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus Syndrome Monet Garrett Period 3 4B Type of Disorder Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus syndrome (BRBNS), also know as “bean syndrome” is a rare autosomal disease and it is the dominant allele. It is caused by inheriting a defective gene or by a heterozygous mutation in the TEK (TIE2) gene (600221) on chromosome 9p21. BRBNS is characterized by blue/purple rubber texture like pimple/blebs on the skin and organs, mostly along

World Genetic Disease Project - Severe Combined Immunodeficiency
World Genetic Disease Project- Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) or more commonly known as the bubble boy disease can cause newborns to have a weak or no immune system. It causes them to get infectious diseases that can kill them but if treated and diagnosed soon enough it can go away. A magority of the people that have SCID are treated for an X-linked SCID which can be responsible for about 45% of

Laboratory 8: Population Genetics and Evolution
Biology 11 Pre-AP Lab Report Laboratory 8: Population Genetics And Evolution Block 6 BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Hardy-Weinberg theory suggests that evolution occurs through changes in frequencies in alleles. The reason for this lab is to find what effect altering the environment has on the equilibrium. In the lab, P is the representation of the dominant trait, and q is the representation of the recessive one. The formula of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is p2+2pq+q2=1. There are

Genetic Engineering
GENETIC ENGINEERING Genetic engineering is a process where the genes of organisms are modified or changed. This is done by introducing a gene from another organism to result in a desired characteristic. Genetic engineering can be applied to any organism, from a virus to a cow. They take DNA from one organism, called the donor, and cut out the gene that they want to use. They use that gene to join it with another DNA
