Answer -
Discuss Richard Ebright’s work in the light of what you have studied. If you get an opportunity to work like Richard Ebright on projects and experiments, which field would you like to work on and why?
Answer:
Richard Ebright’s works were related to Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. His theory on the life of cells has helped the scientific community to study the cell structure, its growth and functions of different organisms. Indirectly, it also helps in detecting disease causing organisms and discovering how these grow inside the body of living beings. Ebright’s findings about insect hormones and the photos gave him the answer to one of biology’s puzzles, how the cell could ‘read’ the blueprint of its DNA. DNA is the substance in the nucleus of a cell that controls heredity and passes genetic information from one generation to another. It determines the form and function of the cell.
If I get an opportunity to work like Richard Ebright on projects and experiments, I would like to study about various life-threatening diseases. By studying the DNA, I may find useful remedies to cure chronic or fatal illnesses.
