wat did everyone get for the last question in unit 2? What was a risk of injecting totipotent cells?

I put something along the lines of -

The white blood cells may identify the totipotent stem cells as antigens, and attempt to engulf them.

yeah i put something about the immune system rejecting it and alot of attacking etc etc.

hmm i put that they have the potential to divide uncontrollably and cause a tumour :/ duno tbh

[jeeano]

oops sorry bout that dunno y it just repeated a million times

[jeeano]

i put that it could differentiate into a harmful cell that could ebcome infectious-yeah doesnt sound like a decent answeer does i but i meatn tumourous growth anyway

what are the risks of doing a root squash?
spilling acid on yourself
spilling stain on yourself.

i couldn't see how a totipotent cell could be rejected by any immune system? explain anyone?

I said there could be an Inflammatory response so the person might have fever, nausea etc

I put about the risk of a tumour developing first, but i thought it was wrong.

Depends if it contained the same DNA as that person right? If it was a totipotent cell from a random embryo then surely it would be seen as an invader?

yes that sounds pretty plausible tbh, for some reason i was put off by the fact they can differentiate into anythinggg, and i thought they could be put into anyone.
but yeah the DNA has to be different :/

there's nearly always more than one possible answer though

They were both pretty easy

Soz for being so blunt

it is a bit blunt ut if thats how u flet
good on u!

for the risks of acetic orcein i said to use goggles to prevent acid reaching eyes and to use gloves when handling stain because it can stain fingers,clothes,etc

hope thats rite!

o and for the nucleus, i drew the nucleolus, nuclear pores, nuclear envelope and the nucleoplasm
that shud be 4 marks outta 4 but chromatin included woulda been a better bet of getting full marks
