Study Notes
Creation Theory Overview
- Creation spans seven days with distinct events attributed to each day.
- 1st Day: Creation of Earth.
- 2nd Day: Formation of the sky (firmament).
- 3rd Day: Creation of land and marine creatures.
- 4th Day: Creation of celestial bodies, including the moon.
- 5th Day: Emergence of marine and flying creatures.
- 6th Day: Creation of land animals and woman.
- 7th Day: Creator rested and blessed this day.
Genetic Concepts
- A couple usually needs to have 10 children to achieve a child identical to another, based on heterozygosity rates ranging from 6.6% to 7.7%.
-
Founders of Genetics:
- Gregor Johann Mendel is recognized for establishing heredity principles.
- Thomas Hunt Morgan demonstrated genes' linear arrangement on chromosomes.
Cloning in Medical Practice
- "Clone" typically refers to a living duplicate of a patient, produced by chromosomal replication, or an exact gene copy, but not merely an arrangement of genes.
Clinical Pathology Functions
- Clinical Hematology: Counts different blood cells.
- Blood Bank: Manages blood transfusions.
- Blood Serology/Clinical Immunology: Conducts antigen-antibody testing related to infectious diseases.
Investigating Heredity
- Cytogenetics focuses on heredity at the cellular level.
- Molecular Genetics dives deeper into the molecular structure of genes.
Comparing Theories of Origin
- Evolutionary Theory suggests organisms evolved from common ancestors with increasing genetic information due to mutations over time.
- Creationary Theory asserts complete genetic information has declined through mutational degradation, indicating a Creator's design.
Understanding Measurement of Days
- Original accounting of a day starts from evening (sunset) until the next morning (daytime).
Genetic Cellular Composition
- Cytogenetics is the only laboratory test capable of surveying an individual's genetic cellular constitution.
Notable Fossil Discoveries
- Statements regarding fossil findings include criticisms of the Nebraska man, identification of a gorilla skull, issues with the Piltdown man discovery, and Ramapithecus as an intermediate form revealed in a 1930s discovery.
