Summary Introduction

To describe:

How does an increase in the carbon dioxide concentration in blood affect the pH of cerebrospinal fluid.

Introduction:

Respiration involves the process of exchange of gases in body of an organism. In this process, oxygen is inhaled and carbon dioxide in blood is exhaled through lungs. Increase in concentration of carbon dioxide in blood results in formation of carboxyhemoglobin.

As carbon dioxide binds to hemoglobin present in blood. Cerebrospinal fluid is found in brain beneath the skull which helps to protect brain from shocks and minor injuries. It also helps in the transportation of minerals, nutrients and removal of toxic metabolic waste from brain.

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.
