+ Unit 8: DNA Protein Biology!! Slide 2 + Front of class Door
Slide 3 + WEEK 28 3/30/15 *Catalyst:* What does the word ethical
mean? ***NEW PROCEDURE:*** You have 1 song to do the following: 1)
Complete the catalyst ! 2) Get out any talking out you need to! 3)
Find your seat! Slide 4 + Learning Intention: We will demonstrate
knowledge of the complexity of biological issues in todays society.
Learning Intention: We will demonstrate knowledge of the complexity
of biological issues in todays society. Success Criteria: We will
be successful when we can take a stance on a bioethical issue and
can defend this stance using evidence. Success Criteria: We will be
successful when we can take a stance on a bioethical issue and can

AGENDA! Upcoming dates Introduction to bioethics Case study &
argument Slide 6 + Upcoming dates Tomorrow (Tuesday) Class starts
here and then moves to 307! Wednesday & Thursday In computer
lab 307. Thursday by end of class = Bioethics research project
due!!! Slide 7 + BIOETHICS is the study of the typically
controversial ethical issues emerging from new situations &
possibilities brought about by advances in biology & medicine.
***Basically because we can manipulate DNA Slide 8 + Manipulating
DNA How can we manipulate DNA? Literally cut it into pieces. Done
through proteins called restriction enzymes What can it be used
for? Paternity testing Criminal Investigation Genetic Engineering
Cloning Slide 9 + Paternity and Criminal Investigations Cut up
fragments of DNA are put into a gel electrophoresis. Depending on
how big the segment of DNA, the further down the gel a fragment of
DNA will move. Then compare one persons DNA to another persons to
see if theyre related. Slide 10 + Agree or disagree that is the
question! Thumbs up = I agree Thumbs down = I disagree
Expectations: Wait until count down is over! 100% participation You
must choose a side!!! Slide 11 + Practice Example. Agree OR
Disagree? I wish that we could come to school during spring break.
Slide 12 + ***I believe that a paternity test should be required
before a man has to make child support payments. Slide 13 + People
can anonymously donate a sperm or an egg. *** Children who are born
from these donations have the right to a paternity test to
determine the identity of their genetic parents. Slide 14 + Man
charged even after science defends him?!

child-support-for-son-who-isnt-his/490355/ Slide 15 + ***I believe
that, when available, DNA should always be used as evidence in a
criminal investigation. Slide 16 + ***Police should take a sample
of every humans fingerprints and DNA at birth to have on record.

by DNA) http://www.innocenceproject.org/case

+ Genetic Engineering Cut up fragments of DNA with specific genes
can be added to DNA of a fertilized egg. This can give rise to
organisms with new traits. Examples: (GMOs) Mice that can glow Many
crops (tomatoes, corn, rice) Slide 19 + ***I believe that food that
has been genetically modified should be labeled so that people can
choose to not eat GMOs if they dont want to. Slide 20 + I believe
that we should genetically engineer fish to make them glow so we
can sell them as cool pets. Slide 21 + Glofish.
http://www.glofish.com/ Slide 22 + Cloning Theoretically, any
organism can be cloned to make a genetically identical organism.
These two cats are clones but, they look different. This is because
different genes on the same DNA can be activated by the different
environments the organism grew up in. Slide 23 + I believe that we
should make clones of human embryos (or fetuses) just to use their
cells for scientific research. Slide 24 + I would want to be
cloned!!! Slide 25 + Dolly the Sheep (1996) She was the first
mammal to be cloned from an adult cell.

Slide 26 + Where do you stand? Today: Put yourself in the shoes of
someone facing a bioethical dilemma. Take a stance and defend it
using evidence. Tomorrow: Begin a project researching a bioethical
dilemma of your choice. Slide 27 + Reading EXPECTATIONS! Quiet with
neighbors. C3-B4-ME (Then raise hand & wait!) Reading and
argument formation! Sitting in a seat. Actively reading &
answering! Slide 28 + SUCCESS CRITERIA What bioethical issue do you
want to do your research paper on? 3/30/15
