What's the difference between bioinformatics and biotechnology?


Both the fields of Biotechnology and Bioinformatics are equally good from job and earning prospective. Both the courses have equal opportunities and have their own priorities, I will suggest you to go for that field in which you are interested
Career Prospects in Biotechnology:
-Biotechnology has grown rapidly, and is concerned with employment, it has become the fastest growing sector.
-After completing a postgraduate degree in biotechnology one can easily absorb in corporate and government sectors, both. Biotechnologists are employed in leading MNCs including pharmaceutical companies, chemical industries, bio-processing industries, agriculture-related industries, and pollution control activities of the major industries etc.
-One can also join government and corporate-run research and development organizations.
- It a good career opportunity for bright young people.
Career in Bioinformatics:
-Bioinformatics career in attracting the youngsters in India today.
-The scope of bioinformatics is in areas like –
Database design and maintenance,
Sequence assembly,
Clinical pharmacologist,
Sequence analysis,
Proteomics,
Informatics developer and
Bio-analytics
-Excellent job opportunities are available in Pharmaceutical companies and other companies like Wipro, Reliance, Satyam, TCS, and companies like Accelrys and IBM Life Sciences Pubgene, Silicon Genetics, Tessella, etc.

Do pesticides affect plant growth? If so, why?

Image
If there were insects destroying your plant and you used an insecticide, it would improve the growth and health of your plant. If a fungus was destroying your plant and you used a fungicide that would also improve the growth of your plant. And if you used an herbicide on your plant, it would die, so that would also affect its growth. Pesticide is a general term that includes insecticides, fungicides and herbicides. Anything that kills any “pest” organism is a pesticide. So pesticides would also include anything with an extreme pH, such as salt, vinegar, wood ash, boric acid and for that matter hot water. https://larixconferences.com/biotechnology/

Why can’t our immune system fight Ebola when it can easily defeat other diseases?

Image
The long story short Ebolaviruses produce a viral protein that paralyses a crucial signaling cascade of the immune system, effectively leaving the immune system swinging between insufficient antiviral immune response and overwhelming inflammatory symptoms. The long story, long Ok, be prepared — the Magic School bus is going to take an extended trip to the lands of ebolaviruses and viral proteins and the interferon system. Interferons are what are called cytokines — molecules that cells use to talk to each other. Interferon in particular is like an alert signal, pointing out signs of trouble. A cell that has been exposed to a virus emits interferon to put neighboring cells on the defensive and mark itself for destruction. They also activate immune cells, such as NK cells (a kind of lymphocyte that can kill other cells, similarly to cytotoxic T lymphocytes) and, systemically, they put the body in a state that's conducive to fighting a viral infection, e.g. by raising its t...

How do plants get overwatered?

Image
It breaks down into two issues: too much water; and, inadequate drainage. Either or both may happen when too much water is given to plants. It is most applicable to plants in pots, but can also occur with plants in the ground. When you water you are doing a couple of things. You are supplying needed moisture to the root system so it can provide that moisture to the stems and leaves. You are also flushing out some minerals and waste products from metabolic processes occurring in the roots and in the soil. If your potted plants have a drip tray under them and you leave water in the tray, the waste products have nowhere to go except back in to the soil where they become more concentrated. This can lead to soil that is toxic to the roots. Remember that potted plants are in an essentially closed system—unless you flush out the accumulated salts and waste products periodically. The minerals in your water supply will accumulate, possibly to the point of burning the tips of the root...
