Your friend is a pioneer in es cell research. in her research, she uses an es cell line that originated from an inbred strain of laboratory mice called fg426. she has just figured out methods that allow her to grow an entire liver from an es cell and has successfully grown 10 livers. she demonstrates that the newly grown livers are functional by successfully transplanting one of the new livers into a fg426 laboratory mouse. you are particularly excited about this, because you have a sick pet mouse, squeaky. you are very attached to squeaky, as you found him when you were out camping in new hampshire. unfortunately, squeaky has developed liver disease and will not live much longer without a liver transplant. after you see your friend on tv talking about her new method for growing mouse livers, you immediately grab your cell phone to ask her whether squeaky could have one of the newly grown livers. just as you are about to dial your friend, you remember something you learned in cell biology and realize that instead, you should ask your friend about possibly using therapeutic cloning for squeaky’s benefit.

a. why do you think that one of the newly grown livers may not work in squeaky?

b. explain how using ips cells could solve this problem.

Ascientist is investigating the effects of salinity on fish development. he places fertilized fish eggs in an aquarium that contains low salinity and observes their development. what factor would improve experimental design the most? place the fish eggs in the open ocean because that is the natural habitat include another aquarium that has normal salinity to compare to the low salinity aquarium include an aquarium that replaces salt with sugar to confirm that the effects are specific to salt grow algae with the fish eggs in order to provide adequate nutrients to the developing embryos
