Summary Introduction

To determine:

The impossibility of cholesterol down to zero.

Introduction:

Lipids are macromolecules. It is hydrophobic in nature, i.e., do not dissolve in water. Some examples of lipids are butter and oil. Lipids are not polymers, which consist of a long chain of monomers. Lipids contain three important divisions: triglycerides, steroids, and phospholipids. They are commonly called fats. Triglycerides (saturated and unsaturated fatty acids) help to store energy. Steroids stabilize animal membranes and sex hormones. Phospholipids involved in the formation of a major part of biological membranes.

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.
