Benefits of Biotech in NC
North Carolina is an attractive terrain for biotechnology firms—from 2001 to 2010, the state experienced the highest job growth rate (23.5%) of any of the top biotechnology states in the country. Since 2001, the popularity of NC as a biotech destination has resulted in the creation of more than 12,000 jobs in pharmaceuticals, research, testing and medical labs, agricultural feedstock and chemical industries. All have shown robust growth. Related image
Students in NC have more opportunities to enter the field of biotechnology after graduation than in most states thanks to two very important research centers. The North Carolina Research Center located in Kannapolis and Research Triangle Park near Raleigh, are very important to the NC economy. Both of these facilities bring in tax revenue to our state and offer job opportunities in many science-based fields of study. Image result for research triangle
More than 250 companies and 50,000 people with expertise in fields such as micro-electronics, telecommunications, biotechnology, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and environmental sciences are located here in NC. Industries invest more than $300 million in Research & Development at the region’s universities each year – double the average R&D investment for innovation clusters elsewhere in the nation. Because of these centers, NC is a leader in biotechnology advances in agriculture, energy and medicine. Our state is home to some of the leading physicians, research scientists, biotechnologists, and agricultural scientists in the US.
Some of the key factors that make North Carolina attractive for the biotechnology industry include:
the presence of the pioneering North Carolina Biotechnology Center and Research Triangle Park have lead to financial incentives the state government has provided to companies such as Merck and Quintiles; and the educational programs developed at both the community college and university level to help firms fill openings with qualified local employees with knowledge and training in biotechnology.
Tax revenues increase because of the large number of developing careers in the field of biotechnology in North Carolina.
Biotechnology affects us in every area of our lives, our food, water, medicine and shelter, improving quality of life. When it comes to Biotechnology, nothing could be finer than to live in North Carolina!
Answer:
look at Explanation
Explanation:
North Carolina’s biotech industry is quickly expanding.
Within the state, there are more than 600 life science companies employing 61,000 people at an average salary exceeding $81,000 a year – which is nearly twice the state’s overall private sector wage, according to the North Carolina Biotechnology Center.
In total, life science companies and institutions in North Carolina generate $73 billion in economic activity, which is an increase of 23 percent in two years, and account for 228,259 direct and indirect jobs, says North Carolina Biotechnology Center.
Furthermore, while employment in the nation’s life science industry rose by 7.4 percent from 2001 to 2012, North Carolina’s grew at a surprising 31 percent, even with setbacks from the Great Recession of 2008.
Following closely behind California, North Carolina outpaced life science industry growth in other states, including Texas, New York, Massachusetts and Florida, between 2009-2012, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. In the chart below, North Carolina's life science industry grew 5.2% from 2009 to 2012. While California's life sciences industry increased even more at 5.5% during the same time period, other states such as Pennsylvania and New Jersey actually saw their life sciences sectors shrink by 7% and 7.3%, respectively.

Answer:
Cell membranes are in both Plant and Animals cells.
Explanation:
Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. In plants, the cell wall surrounds the cell membrane, they both give the plant structure and support. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.

“How might an energy requirement affect an individual who has a cancerous tumour?”
Answer:
Cellular respiration describes the series of steps that cells use to break down sugar and other chemicals to get the energy we need to function. Energy is stored in the bonds of glucose (like a stretched rubber band), and when glucose is broken down, much of that energy is released. Some of it is captured in a form that can be used to do work in cells - a molecule called adenosine triphosphate or ATP. The energy that is not captured in ATP is usually given off as heat (one of the things that helps us maintain our normal body temperature).

Damage to the brain can sometimes occur as the result of an accident.
State the part of the brain labeled A and suggest a problem that may be
experienced by a person who has damage to that part of the brain.
Answer:
A traumatic brain injury interferes with the way the brain normally works. When nerve cells in the brain are damaged, they can no longer send information to each other in the normal way. This causes changes in the person's behavior and abilities. The injury may cause different problems, depending upon which parts of the brain were damaged most.

What cell part supports the structure of the system plant cell
Answer:
The cell wall provides strength and support to the plant, much like the exoskeleton of an insect or spider (our skeleton is on the inside of our body, rather than on the outside like insects or spiders). The plant cell wall is mainly made up of the carbohydrates molecules cellulose and lignin.
