they could be primitave as us, or even less, like 70's age, and happen to have goals set primarily on space travel through long distance.

Yes thank you, but what actually makes them dominate? It cant just be that it makes it so the other isnt there, thats what it does, how does it do it?

caltech is a great one in california. for both chem and electric. mit is a top one for many sciences including the ones your interested in.ranked #1 for chemical engineering, and ranked #1 for electrical engineering. MIT ROCKS! carnegie mellon institute is good{more for electrical than chem} california state university is a great one too. ranked 4th best chem. engineering in the nation. stanford was ranked 2 best for electrical engineering.

How do ice crystals chemically form? I was curious, i know that water expands when frozen, but what makes it actually expand? Thanks.

Hmm.I agree. YMMV?

Yes, i think that Aliens could bring us back, so long as their system had very similiar functions. It would be essentially the same as cloning{though they would need an embryo nearly identicall to a human one, and have technology of at least our status}. Was the DNA actually like cotton swabs or computer digits? If the ladder, then im not sure. Have we already done what? I think that they would want to too for research if they havent already done this before and are curious in nature like many of us. Just as we would if we had the chance.

How are genes deemed Dominant or Recessive? What makes them that? I just used anger as an example, i dont actually have anger problems. Though my dad says that he does and i will, i wasnt lying, maybe my mom is the opposite and i get her gene and not my dads. thanks guys.

Does anyone have any other Celestial body pics? Im hungry for more...

Dont tissue cells for Endurance Athletes contain multiple mitochondrian? Remotely related to the topic: The rna makes its way up into the nucleoplasm and finds the nucleolus and dna wich copys the instructions to go to ribosomes making the proteins to get sent to the endoplasmic reticulum and then to the golgi apparatus to get the proteins to the surface inside there cozy little lysosomes. Is this right? What tells the rna to move to the nucleolus in the first place? How does it move? What exactly does the Endoplasmic Reticulum do? Are their multiple ribosomes floating around in a cell at random? how does the protein find the ER and GA? thank you.

But schools can also be social nightmares for some, and homeschooling is prefered. Though not in my case,{im relatively social}, i see why some parents do this. Your right about how they probably dont know everything that school teaches you though. I dont see a difference between the stuff i learn at home versus the stuff at school. If anything, i learn more at home on my own because i can delve further. I dont just accept things, i have to learn how things work down to the last bit, {nuts and bolts}, and im driven on curiosity, wich is what makes me learn every detail about these things.{god i wish more others were too}

There are mutations too, wich differ your cells from past generations.

is it the tissue cells undergoing mitosis in muscle growth?

How exactly does the embryo create stem cells? Could we replicate a stem cell protoplasm artificially and then insert ones dna into the nucleolus of it? Kind of off topic: Does dna contain all of the information to create any type of cell? what about the mitochondrian? does it know how to create that and the dna inside of it? ES stem cells are the best right? becuase their totipotent? Thanks.

Yes, i agree, and i have learned alot more science-wise out of school on my own than in school. I just want to get out of some of the stuff i already know and get to stuff that i dont. Or at least get out of some of the stuff i already know so i can focus more on the things i learn out of school at such a faster, better rate. I want to be a Molecular Biologist, and am learning quite a bit about it in my free time, but like Einstein said, "The only thing interfering with my learning is my education". Right now i just learn all the stuff i can on websites like this or the library and then talk to my biology teacher on school days after class if i have any questions.

I will get into that habit right now.

ya i planned to have like 3-5 of them per set. but it all depends on how many maggots i can find in one litter. i didnt think about temperatuer differences from the freezer and the outside of winter. your may be right.i might just crank up my freezer and hope for the best. my brother put a fly in the freezer, and once it came out it appeared to be dead for about a minute then it took of, so im hoping it will work. i think that maybe the bugs need to have the time of a slow freezing process for getting the water from the cells just enough outside of the protoplasm so that the crystals cant form close enough to damage the cells or anything else thats needed, and im curios to see if liquid nitrogen will give the cells enough time to do that. i might be wrong though. i think ill try it with both. have 8 sets if subjects{4 flys per subject} and 1 control. 4 subjects in the freezer, 4 in the liquid nitrogen, and then have them for different amounts of days {mentioned in first post}. thanks for the idea.

doesnt the cell theory state that one of the requisits for life is at least one cell? one prokaryotic organism is alive according to the cell theory, and it isnt much more the cells and vigourus chemicals. if anything, its less, becuase its only one cell.{please correct me if im wrong} im not quite understanding what your saying, are you suggesting an intelligent designer is needed for protocells and cell formation? why do protocells need a digital code to exist? i think that abiogenesis can explain how life can form quite well. but i may be wrong. btw:this thread is a library of info. ive learned quite a bit from the people participating in this. thanks.

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/21/science/21stem.html?_r=1&em&ex=1195966800&en=09f92cd386d8ea6e&ei=5087%0A here is a link to the article i read that talked about how 2 teams of scientists were able to create stem cells from skin cells. it talks about how they use a retrovirus to insert 4 genes into the nucleas essentially blanking the slate of the skin cells and making them stem cells. it doesnt really go into the process much from what i read. does anyone know how this could work? why is this not big now? it was posted in 2007 so i dont know whats happened with this research since then, is there a roadblock or something? i also just thought that its very interesting. thanks.

i will look into it. where is this based at? is this an online college or an actual campus? it seems that the people in the little pictures are all from the east coast. is it somewhere over there? thanks for your help.

hey. so many organisms have an adaptation where they supply extra glucose to their blood and the water in their cells seep into vacuoles in the cells and out of the cells to stop any damage from the crystalization of the water due to freezing from happening.{please correct me if im wrong} its called cryogenisis. im sure you guys already know this but i thought itd be a good starter to this post. i know that wood frogs just turn into blocks over the winter and then later thaw out with the oncoming of spring. and many other insects and eggs like mantis eggs and some fruit flys. im using fruit flys for this one. i will to have 4 sets of subjects and 1 control.i will feed all equaly for 2 days before my testing begins. milk,sugar, water, and of course, fruit. subject1: i will leave out as a control, and feed it a normal healthy fly diet. subject2: i will {after the 2 days period where i will all feed equally and try and equal them all out} put in the freezer for 1 day. subject3: i will put in the freezer for 1 week. subject4: i will put in the freezer for 30 days. the purpose of this experiment is to see how long a fruitfly can live in cryogenesis. also, to see how long {if they can live for extended time periods being frozen} the lifespan of the fruit fly extends if it is frozen for an extended amount of time. my hypothesis: i think that the control will die faster than the subjects undergoing cryogenesis due to less body motility and usage. i belive that the flys will live in cryogenis state for at least 1 day. subject4 i am unsure about, but am hoping they will live through 30 days of cryogenesis. this experiment is out of curiosity alone. i will get the fruit flys from leaving some fruit to rot in a container where fruit flys can only get in and not out. then i will wait until a nice new fresh batch of maggots pops up and will seperate them into the 5 sets mentioned and feed equally until cryogenesis is induced. is this experiment flawed? interesting? thank you.

she gave me a little booklet about some program called pass. its an online thing. ya, thats what i was hoping for when i went to go talk to her, to see if i could challenge out of courses like in colleges showing that i already know all the material, but i guess i cant do that because i need the credits too. i dont see why i need credits when i know it all already. grrrrrrr. that link you posted did seem pretty cool. up my alley, the first thing i read said "what if your ready to go to college now". i like to think i am. i hope i dont sound too cocky niaeve here. but the admission fees were like in the high thirty thousands.i really dont have any money, nor does my family. thank you though. i may be just doomed to agonzingly grit my teeth through 3 and a 1/4 more years of highschool like most others.no im not giving up yet. maybe someone will come up with another idea...

my father tells me how he has a temper so i will have one too. is there actually a science to that statement?are attitudes hereditary? what about past disorders like schyzophrenia? or ocd? are those hereditary? im guessing yes. thanks.

hi. im a freshman in highschool, and i want to finish highschool much faster than its going. i know i can learn all the stuff myself through the library and internet{wich i am} but i still have to go through 4 years of stuff i already know. im not saying that im smarter than anyone else, i just am more interested in science in particular and take in information becuase i want to, not because i have to, so its alot easier for me than the average teenager who takes 4 reluctant years to learn stuff that their going to discard afterwards anyways. my point is that i wanted to see if anyone knew of any ways to get out of the 4 year thing, still learning the same stuff, just faster.i would like to just learn the stuff on my own and take a test showing that i know it all so it could get me out of it or something. ive talked to my counseler, but all she gave me is something that costs 200 bucks per 30 credits wich i need 180 credits per year to graduate, so itll take me quite a bit of money to do that. wich i dont have. does anyone know of a better, cheaper way to get out of highschool and into a university quicker than 4 years and less expensive? i plan to be a valedictorian and get into the desired college of mine for alot cheaper than usual{ high standards, but i can do it} wich seems kind of errogant for me to just say, but i know i can do it. my accumalitive gpa is 3.5 and its going to keep raising. thankyou.

i like that idea. but i think that you would have to get the subjects specific hiv, then do that before the virus mutates in the body, then have all the viruses starve before mutation. im not sure how much time you could have. though i could be wrong, wich i hope. couldnt you just inject the t helper cells with the delta 32 mutation and have them do the job themselves? would our bodys know the difference and try to fight the foreign helper cells instead?

what about fevers? they slow down viruses overall dont they? as for the helper t cells, could there be a way to increase their defense against hiv? or maybe change the shape or attributes of the helper t cells making hiv useless against them, then the b cells can make all the antibodies fast enough to wipe out hiv before it mutates out of the antibodies, would that work? that would cure it right?
