To explain: The way in which the parents should decide which embryo to use.
Concept introduction: Reproductive technologies assist these infertile couples to conceive a baby directly or through surrogate mothers. In vitro fertilization is a procedure that is also known as fertilization “in glass”. In vitro fertilization (IVF) occurs under artificial laboratory conditions, wherein either the male or female or both are infertile. In vitro fertilization gives the infertile couples a chance at parenthood. Baby designing is where the genome of embryo is altered to remove unwanted mutations or increase certain gene expression to give a healthier baby than normal.
To explain: The parents have the right or not to choose the embryo based on presence or absence of disease-causing genes.

Presence of proteins of your interest Levels of protein expression Levels of protein activation (must use activation state-specific antibody) Decreased function of the ATM kinase in aging mice.

- Question #4: Assume you are able to use CRISPR to create an allele that will convert a cross-pollinated, sexually reproducing crop plant into an obligate apomict. Your edited obligate apomict plants retains all the CRISPR "machinery" necessary to convert the "sexually reproducing" allele to the "obligate apomict" allele. You plant 100 hectares of your edited obligate apomicts in order to increase seed for sale the following year. Neighboring farms and seed producers are growing many different un-edited sexually reproducing varieties of the crop. If your neighbors plant seed harvested from their crops that was pollinated by your crop, should they expect these seeds to generate apomictic or non-apomictic plants?

- "One of the symmetry breaking events in mouse gastrulation requires the amplification of Nodal on the side of the embryo opposite to the Anterior Visceral Endoderm (AVE). Describe one way by which Nodal gets amplified in this region." My understanding of this is that there are a few ways nodal is amplified though I'm not sure if this is specifically occurs on the opposite side of the AVE. 1. pronodal cleaved by protease -> active nodal 2. Nodal -> BMP4 -> Wnt-> nodal 3. Nodal-> Nodal, Fox1 binding site 4. BMP4 on outside-> nodal Are all of these occuring opposite to AVE?arrow_forwardIf four babies are born on a given day What is the chance all four will be girls?
