Biotechnology, forensics, medicine, society should make informed decisions (gm plants, lab grown organs, human genome editing, fund basic science) Nobel prizes are for studying fundamental processes, not studying speci c diseases. Cells possess a genetic program and the means to use it; genes form proteins (dna is transcribed to rna and translated into protein) Cells are capable of producing more of themselves e. g. mitosis and meiosis. Cells can acquire and utilize energy photosynthesis and respiration (sun carbs atp) Cells carry out chemical reactions metabolism; enzymes aid in cellular metabolic processes (use atp)
