Summary Introduction

To analyze:

The reason for concern of regulatory authorities about presence of coliforms in the drinking water with respect to argument made by a student that this concern makes no sense as coliforms are harmless members of our microbiota.

Introduction:

The bacteria that are present inside the body of the higher animals like humans are called as enterobacteria or entries. They are members of the family Enterobacteriaceae. They are found mainly in the intestinal tracts of human digestive system. The members of this family are anaerobes, that is, they are able to function in the absence of oxygen.

If using animals in medical experiments could save human lives, is it ethical to do so? In your answer, apply at least one ethical theory in support of your position.
You aim to test the hypothesis that the Tbx4 and Tbx5 genes inhibit each other's expression during limb development. With access to chicken embryos and viruses capable of overexpressing Tbx4 and Tbx5, describe an experiment to investigate whether these genes suppress each other's expression in the limb buds. What results would you expect if they do repress each other? What results would you expect if they do not repress each other?
You decide to delete Fgf4 and Fgf8 specifically in the limb bud. Explain why you would not knock out these genes in the entire embryo instead.
