Planarians were fed different foods containing varying amounts of vitamin A to study the effects on regeneration. Turkey liver, which contained the most vitamin A, showed the greatest regeneration of both head and body pieces. Chicken breast, containing the least vitamin A, showed the least regeneration. As hypothesized, greater vitamin A intake through food led to greater planarian regeneration.

Cleavage
Cleavage is the first phase of embryonic development after fertilization and involves a series of rapid cell divisions. There are two key reasons for cleavage - it generates more cells that can differentiate to form organs, and it increases the nucleus to cytoplasm ratio which is optimal for cell function. Cleavage differs in different organisms depending on how much yolk is present in the egg. Eggs can be classified as isolecithal, mesolecithal, telolecithal, or centrolecithal depending on the yolk distribution, and this determines whether holoblastic or meroblastic cleavage occurs. The orientation of the mitotic spindle controls the plane of cell division during cleavage.
Echinodermata
The document discusses the larval forms of different classes of echinoderms. It describes six different larval forms - bipinnaria, branchiolaria, ophiopluteus, echinopluteus, auricularia, and doliolaria. Each larval form is characteristic of one or more echinoderm classes. The larval forms are bilaterally symmetrical and free-swimming, undergoing metamorphosis to become radially symmetrical adults. Studying the larval forms provides insights into the evolutionary relationships between different echinoderm classes.
Anthoceros
1. Anthoceros is a genus of hornworts that reproduces sexually as a gametophyte generation.
2. The thallus is flattened, lobed, and lacks a midrib or branches; rhizoids are present on the ventral surface.
3. Reproduction can occur vegetatively through fragmentation, gemmae, or tubers, or sexually through antheridia and archegonia developing on the upper thallus surface.
4. Fertilization results in a diploid zygote that develops into an elongated, horn-like sporophyte embedded in the gametophyte thallus.
Chordata
Chordata is the last phylum of kingdom Animalia.
Which is further subdivided into subphylums, divisions and classes.

cleavage and gastrulation in amphibians
1. Amphibian embryos undergo radial cleavage where cell divisions are slower in the vegetal hemisphere containing yolk. Gastrulation begins with the invagination of cells at the blastopore forming the archenteron.
2. Fate mapping shows superficial cells form ectoderm and endoderm, while deeper cells form mesoderm. During gastrulation, bottle cells migrate inward expanding the archenteron.
3. Spemann and Mangold's experiments showed the dorsal lip tissue of the blastopore, known as the organizer, can induce a secondary embryonic axis when transplanted, demonstrating its inductive properties.
vittelogenesis.pptx
Vittelogenesis is a word developed from Latin vitellus-yolk, and genero-produce
Vitellogenesis (also known as yolk deposition) is the process of yolk formation via nutrients being deposited in the oocyte, or female germ cell involved in reproduction of lecithotrophic organisms. In insects, it starts when the fat body stimulates the release of juvenile hormones and produces vitellogenin protein.
Yolks is the most usual form of food storage in the egg.
Yolks appear in the oocyte in the secondary period of their growth called vittelogenesis.
Thus,the formation and deposition of yolks is known as vittelogenesis
Characteristic
Yolks is a complex variable assembled component.
The principle component are protein,phospholipid and fats in different combination.
Depending upon these component yolks is distinguished into protein yolks and fatty acid
For eg- the avian contain 48.19% water , 16.6 % protein, 32.6% phospholipids and fats and 1% carbohydrates.

MARCHANTIA
This document summarizes the key characteristics of the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha. It describes the morphology and life cycle of the haploid gametophyte generation, including asexual reproduction via gemmae. Sexual reproduction involves separate male and female gametophytes that produce sperm and eggs. Fertilization results in a diploid sporophyte generation that develops on the female gametophyte and produces haploid spores via meiosis. The spores germinate to form new gametophytes, completing the life cycle. Marchantia is a dioecious liverwort that exhibits alternation of generations between haploid and diploid phases.
Marchantia important points
Marchantia is a genus of liverworts that reproduces both sexually and asexually. The plant body is a flattened thallus with dorsal midribs that bear gemmae cups for asexual reproduction. Male and female gametophytes develop on separate plants. During sexual reproduction, sperm from the male antheridia fertilize eggs in the female archegonia to form zygotes. These zygotes develop into sporophytes that produce spores through meiosis. The spores disperse and can germinate to form new gametophyte generations.
Cilia and flagella
Cilia and flagella are similar in structure, each with a ring of nine pairs of microtubules surrounding two central pairs. Cilia are short, 5-10 μm long, found in greater numbers, and used to move materials like mucus in the respiratory passages. In contrast, flagella are much longer, up to 1000 μm, often occur singly, and help cells move, such as the tail of sperm cells allowing them to swim.
Cleavage
Fertilization is a complex chain of events that must occur successfully for conception. It begins with changes to the sperm to prepare for fusion with an egg. A single sperm must fuse with the egg to prevent polyspermy, which leads to embryonic death. Following fusion, the genetic material from the sperm and egg combine and the zygote undergoes rapid cell division through cleavage to form a blastula or blastocyst. This initiates differentiation of cells and early embryonic development.
Morphology, anatomy and reproduction in Funaria
This document summarizes the morphological, anatomical, and reproductive characteristics of the moss species Funaria. It describes the gametophyte structure including rhizoids, stem, and leaves. Anatomically, it details the layers of the stem and leaf structures. Sexual reproduction involves antheridia and archegonia that develop on separate plants. Fertilization results in a sporophyte structure including foot, seta, and capsule. The capsule contains spores that are dispersed upon dehiscence involving several stages including drying, tearing of spore sacs, and movement of peristome teeth.
Integumentary system vertebrates
The document discusses the integumentary system of vertebrates. It describes the basic layers of skin - epidermis, dermis and hypodermis - across vertebrate classes including jawless fish, cartilaginous fish, bony fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. It details key features of skin in each class such as scales, feathers, hair and glands.
Life cycle of_sphagnum
Sphagnum, or peat moss, is a perennial bryophyte that grows in wet areas, forming dense mats. It has a unique leaf structure of chlorophyll-containing and hyaline cells. The gametophyte reproduces vegetatively through innovations, gemmae, and protonemal branches. Sexual reproduction involves antheridia and archegonia on separate monoecious or dioecious plants. Fertilization results in a sporophyte with a bulbous foot, spherical capsule, and columella containing haploid spores. Germination of spores forms a protonema that develops into a new gametophyte.

Funaria ( bryophytes)
This document summarizes the morphology and life cycle of the moss Funaria. It belongs to the division Bryophyta, class Bryopsida, order Funariales and family Funariaceae. Funaria hygrometrica is the most common and widespread species. It grows in moist, shady places. The plant body is a gametophyte that is differentiated into a protonema and upright gametophores. It reproduces sexually through antheridia and archegonia on separate gametophores, and vegetatively through fragmentation. Fertilization occurs when sperm are released from antheridia and travel to archegonia. This results in a sporophyte called a sporogonium that
Post fertilization events
- Cell migration is key to embryo development and formation of germ layers. The blastula possesses polarity and symmetry, with distinct cell areas that give rise to different embryo parts.
- Tracking migrating cells helps map the locations of ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm, aiding understanding of early embryo patterning. This process of showing each blastula part's fate is called a "fate map".
- Fate maps are constructed using vital stains or carbon particles to label and track cells, revealing cell movements and ultimate tissues formed. This clarifies gastrulation and represents specific blastula areas' destinies.
Single-celled Organism
Single-celled organisms carry out all life processes within a single cell. They obtain food through diffusion, vacuoles, or consuming other organisms. Reproduction occurs through binary fission or budding, allowing a single cell to divide into two. Examples of single-celled organisms include the amoeba, which surrounds food with a membrane sac, the euglena which is a green pond organism, and paramecium.
Ectocarpusppt y.vani
Ectocarpus is a brown alga found in cold waters around the world. It grows attached to rocks and stones, and sometimes epiphytically on other algae. The thallus consists of profusely branched filaments that are either haploid or diploid. It reproduces both asexually through the formation of zoospores in one-celled or many-celled sporangia, and sexually through isogamy or anisogamy. This results in an alternation of generations between haploid gametophytes and diploid sporophytes.
Cladophora -green alga
This document discusses the vegetative structure and reproduction of the green alga Cladophora. It describes Cladophora's classification, occurrence in freshwater and marine habitats, and multicellular filamentous plant body. Reproduction occurs through both asexual and sexual means. Asexual reproduction includes fragmentation, rhizoids, stolons, and akinetes. Sexual reproduction involves the production of haploid zoospores that develop into gametophytes upon which gametes are produced.
Why I Chose Sex by Tamara Leahy
Tamara Leahy is a PhD student studying ways to protect ram sperm during processing for freezing and sex-sorting. Her research aims to explore adding seminal plasma proteins to sperm to protect them from stress and damage during these processes. Her preliminary results suggest stress from sex-sorting causes oxidative damage to sperm, but adding seminal plasma proteins or antioxidants may help protect sperm fertility. While her studies show some success improving fertility, more work is needed to fully understand and address the variable responses observed related to factors like the season and timing of adding the protective proteins. She invites the reader to join her team to further this important work.
Metagenics How Do I Quantify My Body and Try to Improve its Health? June 18 2019
Larry Smarr discusses quantifying his body and health over time through extensive self-tracking. He measures various biomarkers through regular blood tests and analyzes his gut microbiome by sequencing stool samples. This revealed issues like chronic inflammation and an unhealthy microbiome. Smarr then took steps like a restricted eating window and increasing plant diversity in his diet, which reversed metabolic syndrome issues and correlated with shifts in his microbiome ecology. His goal is to continue precisely measuring factors like toxins, hormones, gut permeability and food/supplement impacts to further optimize his health.

Join Sharon Ladyman, PhD and Vicki Vieira-Potter, PhD as they present applications of rodent metabolic phenotyping with a focus on the effects of hormones and pregnancy on daily activity in mice.
A reduction in voluntary physical activity during pregnancy in mice is mediated by prolactin
Sharon Ladyman, PhD
Pregnancy is an energetically demanding challenge for the mother and as such, pregnant females undergo numerous metabolic adaptations to meet these demands, including increased food intake and a rapid lowering of energy expenditure and physical activity levels. A particularly striking example is a profound reduction in voluntary running wheel activity (RWA) that occurs as soon as mice become pregnant. We hypothesized that prolactin, one of the first hormones to increase in response to mating in rodents, drives the pregnancy-induced suppression of physical activity levels.
Neuronal and Metabolic Pathways Influenced by Sex Hormones
Vicki Vieira-Potter, PhD
Estrogen-sufficient females are more physically active than males and are protected against adipose tissue and systemic metabolic dysfunction. The mechanisms are not fully understood, but we demonstrate that ovarian removal causes significant mRNA changes in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) brain region (i.e., the reward center), which correlate significantly with physical inactivity. We hypothesize that sex differences in the NAc may help explain differences in physical activity and metabolism.

Embryo transfer techniques & difficulties at mare.pptx
Embryo transfer techniques allow for obtaining multiple foals from genetically valuable mares. The process involves flushing embryos from a donor mare 7-8 days after insemination and surgically transferring them into a synchronized recipient mare. Key steps include choosing young, fertile donor mares; carefully timing insemination, flushing, and transfer to match the donor and recipient's cycles; and providing post-procedure care to support pregnancy. While embryo transfer is an important tool for horse breeding, challenges remain in techniques for older mares and reducing costs to make the technology more accessible.

Biology m5 cellular respiration
This document provides information about Module 5 of an alternative secondary education biology course on cellular respiration. The module contains 5 lessons that discuss how living organisms harvest energy stored in foods through cellular respiration. Key points covered include:
- Cellular respiration is the process where stored chemical energy in foods is converted to ATP in organisms.
- The mitochondria are where cellular respiration occurs in eukaryotic cells. They have inner and outer membranes with cristae infoldings containing protein complexes.
- Glycolysis is the first step where glucose is broken down, producing some ATP and NADH.
- An activity demonstrates how yeast cells respire and produce carbon dioxide from sugar, showing cellular respiration.

To create a transgenic organism, three main components are needed: a gene to transfer, an organism to receive the gene (target organism), and a vector to transfer the gene. The gene is first replicated using PCR and then isolated using restriction enzymes. It is then inserted into a transposon vector, such as piggyBAC, which can insert the gene into the target organism's chromosomes or plasmids. Transgenic organisms contribute to science and society by allowing traits to be introduced that would not normally be present, such as increasing muscle mass in fish without extra food. They have advantages like creating new products, increasing disease resistance, and improving food quality and farming sustainability, but also have disadvantages like unknown effects and ethical issues.

DEUTERONOMY 8:7-9 “For the Lord God is bringing you into a good land…a land full of wheat and Barley, milk and honey in which you will lack nothing ”
JOHN 6:1-14- Feeding of the 5,000 People“ with two fish and five Barley loaves..”
The Prophet (sallallahu alaiyhi wasallam) recommended Barley to cure grief of heart and ailments of the kidney.
By Allah who hold my life, this removes the dirt of your abdomen as one of you removes the dirt of your face.”
According to Firdous Al- Hikmat the suspension prepared from Barley is beneficial for at least hundred diseases of the body.
“ROMANS GLADIATORS WERE KNOWN AS THE BARLEY EATERS THEY ATE BARLEY FOR STRENGTH AND STAMINA
Dr. Hagiwara-reports that he researched over 200 different plants over a period of 13 years. He found that barley grass was the most excellent source of nutrients that the body needs for growth, repair and well-being.

Embryo Transfer
Embryo transfer involves collecting embryos from a donor cow and transferring them to recipient cows. The donor cow is given follicle stimulating hormones to cause it to superovulate and produce multiple embryos. The embryos are then collected from the donor cow approximately 7 days after artificial insemination. The embryos are evaluated and the highest quality embryos are transferred into recipient cows that have been synchronized to the same stage of estrus as the donor cow through the use of hormones. Embryo transfer allows for the propagation of genetics from superior cows and makes it possible to export or store embryos indefinitely.

Singapore abortion facts
This document provides a week-by-week overview of fetal development and describes abortion methods used at different stages of pregnancy. It details how a fertilized egg develops into a fetus with all organs and body parts formed within 8 weeks. Later stages see further growth and development of body systems. The document then outlines abortion techniques used in each trimester, such as suction or dilation and curettage in the first, and more invasive methods like dilation and evacuation or saline injection in the second trimester. The goal is to inform readers about fetal development and abortion procedures.
Transgenic drugs
The document discusses the process of genetically engineering animals to produce pharmaceutical drugs. It describes how recombinant DNA from other species is inserted into animals like goats, cows, and chickens to make them produce therapeutic proteins in their milk, blood or eggs. This is presented as a more efficient and less expensive way to manufacture drugs like antithrombin, insulin, lactoferrin and anti-cancer proteins compared to other methods. However, some ethical concerns are raised regarding animal welfare and unintended consequences. The document explores both sides of this complex issue.
Fertility and antifertility screening
This document summarizes various methods used to evaluate antifertility and hormonal activities. It describes the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis and hormonal regulation of the estrous/menstrual cycle. Several in vivo and in vitro assays are outlined to assess effects on estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone pathways, including vaginal smears, uterine weight changes, hormone receptor binding, and measures of fertility inhibition. The goal is to characterize compounds that may have applications as contraceptives by interfering with hormone production or action.

- 1. S Tomomi Shore, Shawn Cyran Biomedicine Program, Academies@Englewood March 5, 2015
- 2. What is a planarian?• Classified in the Platyhelminthes phylum or “flat worms” • Carnivores • No anus and eats using pharynx in middle of its body • Has central nervous system Flat worm with ability to regenerate
- 3. What is a planarian? Continued • Sexually reproduce and asexually reproduce through division • Hypotheses for regeneration: • Epimorphosis- neoblasts • Morphallaxis- morphogens give instructions • Polar Coordinate model- molecules act as “zip code”
- 4. S Retinoids (found in animals) and carotenoids (found in plants) are two subgroups of vitamin A group. S Retinoids provide immune, inflammatory, genetic, and reproductive benefits and are important to cell growth and embryonic development. Retinol
- 5. Purpose/Hypothesis S Since Vitamin A is essential to growth and maintenance of the body, we studied the effects of foods with varying amounts of vitamin A on Planarian regeneration. S We hypothesized that Planarians fed greater amounts of vitamin A would show greater regeneration compared to others fed less.
- 6. Vitamin A Retinoid Found in Foods Food Vitamin A per 100g Chicken Breast 50 IU Egg Yolk 1,442 IU Beef Liver 53,400 IU Turkey Liver 72,350 IU S We predicted that turkey liver would have the greatest growth while chicken breast would have the least because turkey liver has the most vitamin A, and chicken breast has the least.

- 13. Analysis S In both the heads and bodies, the turkey liver groups had the greatest total growth compared to the others. S In both the heads and bodies, the chicken breast groups had the least total growth compared to the others. S The beef liver had a greater total growth compared to the egg yolk in heads, but egg yolk was greater than beef liver in bodies. This slight variation shows that these amounts of vitamin A were not large enough to show any noticeable differences.
- 14. Conclusion S Results confirm hypothesis S As we predicted, we found that the group of Planarians fed turkey liver grew the most and the Planarians fed chicken breast grew the least.
