1) Isabella Nolte:-
According to the 'Longevity gene' responsible for more efficient DNA repair, the longevity gene consists of SIRT6 which is a protein found within the DNA of different organisms. In mice, the protein is weaker than in a beaver, which is why a beaver lives longer than a mouse. With this finding, researchers are trying to see whether species like whales, that can live up to 200 years, have stronger SIRT6 proteins than humans. Many scientists aren't using their findings to live until 200, but instead to delay diseases like cancer and dementia. That being said, gene transplants may not cure diseases but may delay them. I think gene manipulation could have consequences because it allows mutations to be made within DNA which would present new health problems. Also if it did work, I imagine the process would not be cheap and people who had degenerative diseases wouldn't be able to get it done when they are the ones who need it most. Other than safety and equality, other ethical considerations include, consent. Many families may have children with disabilities and some will begin to think that swapping around genes is what's best for the child, but isn't like changing clothes it is something that would affect the entire being. In addition to this, scientists may want to experiment with embryos rather than adults or children. There are many different beliefs surrounding human embryos for experimentation though. I feel that some resources should be devoted to gene resources to become more familiar with the idea of gene manipulating, but I do think that there should still be sufficient funds to provide Medicare to people who aren't able to get good health insurance. I think the possibility to help people live longer and postpone degenerative diseases would be a breakthrough in the health and science industry. I think if it worked out, there could be a reduction in expenses for nursing care because people would be able to live longer and healthier lives. Although at some point, there would be just as many people in nursing homes due to the fact that people don't live forever even with gene manipulation. There just may be a few decades that the numbers decrease greatly in nursing homes before they even back out to what they were before the breakthrough. The idea of helping others live longer healthier lives sounds great, but this is a lot of reasearh and experimentation that needs to be done. Also those who need the procedure should be granted access to it rather than only the wealthy.Â

Technology versus processed foods
When it comes to food and technology, today often contributes to the detriment of our society. In today's society, many applications are being created to make our lives simpler. They can be downloaded on many devices that we as individuals carry such as smartphones, iPad, tablets. Some of the applications such as calorie counters and fitness plan are here to help people with eating healthy and making better decisions on what their intake is that goes into their bodies. There are websites such as men's fitness and muscle that give outstanding information to individuals so they can have a better lifestyle. Technology makes it easier for people to track their intake and monitor their nutritional values. There has been a tremendous switch between the traditional and contemporary food preparation thus for making a significant change to our current and future state of nutrition. Comment by Sarah: Indent the first line of each paragraph. Comment by Sarah: Please clarify. What contributes to the detriment of our society?
Historically foods are grown using artificial products that we have in our nutritional values today. "The fortification of foods began in 1924 when iodine was added to table salt for the prevention of goitre" (Food Additive, 2014). Scientists have introduced processed foods to save time, money and energy. They have taken their purpose and have transformed it to prolong the life expansion of food. They have accommodated many single parents on the go who don't have the time on their hands to make a meal the way that it should be. The current downfall of the economy suggests the belief that the world is eating an unhealthy diet. Due to fast lifestyles whether it is because of your profession or lack of time to prepare a meal, contribute significantly to the current generations views. Some individuals that are in lower pay brackets are inclined to eat unhealthily because they cannot afford to buy the more nutritious things. "Half of the world's people, most of them poor and living in developing countries, have diets that are inadequate in protein, calories and micro-nutrients. Up to one-fifth of deaths and disabilities worldwide are attributed to malnutrition" (Sustain). As the more and more states continue to build more fast food restaurants around our neighborhoods, it makes it more convenient to participate in eating an unhealthy meal. Comment by Sarah: Clarify.

Culture plays an incredible role as well. For example, while in the military and living in Germany, many Soldiers notice that Germans eat foods that are full of starch.

What is nutrition?
Is a new science that studies the effects of food on our bodies. Nutrition is how we consume, digest, metabolize, and store food.
When we lack nutrients, we can affect our health.
In the early mid 1700s it was discovered that the lack of vitamin C was the cause of scurvy.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Â
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation âBlue Starâ is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
Â
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasnât one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Text I
The human body is like a machine. It needs fuel to do work. Nutrients are fuel for the body.
They are chemical substances in foods thet the body needs for growth and energy. The body uses
nutrients to carry out life processes. There are five kids of nutrientsâcarbohydrates, fats, proteins,
vitamins, and minerals. Some foods are rich in one nutrient. Most foods contain many nutrients.
5 A balanced diet is especially important to athletes. Athletic activities are hard work. An athletâs
body burns fuel rapidly. It requires a greater supply of fuel than does a person who is not an athlete.
Eating health foods increases an atheteâs power and endurance. Healthful eating helps manage
weight and protect him from injuries.
Most nutrition experts say that an athleteâs diet should be high in carbohydrates. Carbohydrates
are
10 nutrients that supply the body with energy. They also help build muscle. Starches such as bread and
pasta are carbohydrates. They fuel the body with energy over a long periode of time. Sixty to 70
percent of the food an athlete eats should be high in carbohydrates.
Water is also important to athletes. More than two-thirds of the human body is made up of water.
People lose some of thet liqiud when they swet. Athletes must replace the lost fluid. Drinking a liter
of water
15 before each compettion helps maintain the nesessasrywater balance.
Regardless of the sport, every athlete should eat a meal three or four hours before competing.
Fueling the body on carbohydrates, such as cereal, bread, and pasta, is important. The meal should
include fruite and vegetables too. They supply the body with important minerals and add
carbohydrates.
20 Athletes should evoid sugary foods, such as candy and soft drinks. Athough they can give a
quick energy âboostâ, these foods also cause a subsequent energy âdropâ. Most impoetantly, an
athlete should drink two or three cups of caffeine-free fluids. A balanced pre-game meal helps an
athlete reach peak performance.
