CpG islands [edit]. How methylation of CpG sites followed by spontaneous deamination leads to a lack of CpG sites in methylated DNA. As a result residual CpG islands are created in areas where methylation is rare, and CpG sites stick (or where C to T mutation is highly detrimental). CpG islands (or CG islands) are regions with a high frequency of CpG sites, though objective definitions for CpG islands are limited.
First, you need to become an EMT, which is typically a six month course. EMT certification requires that you be at least 18 years of age, in reasonably good physical shape, and have a high school diploma or GED. Once you become an EMT, paramedic training is typically another 18 months to two years, and 2 and 4 year college degree programs are becoming increasingly common.
Step 2: Complete EMT-Basic Training. Education requirements for becoming a paramedic begin with EMT-B training, a requirement for all paramedic certification. This paramedic requirement can be earned at many 2-year and community colleges. EMT courses are developed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). EMT-Basic education requirements include training in cardiac emergencies, airway management, trauma and patient assessment.
