we are faced with a little gang of ninja's trying
to kick and punch each other in the face, " and
when they are told to stop, the boys reply, "The
turtles do it so why can't we?" This is just
another example of how children apply behaviors
observed on television programs to their real

Brain Stem Considered Inferior

The Holocaust was the extermination of the Jews
and other people whom Hitler considered inferior.

the Nazi Party in Germany led this effort. About
12 million people were murdered, half of them
being Jews. When Hitler took over control of
Germany, everything changed. Hitler had a very

create the perfect race of blonde haired blue eyed
Germans. His followers, who were the soldiers in
the camps, were c...

Human Cloning Stem Cells

Since I am majored in biology, I will mainly talk
about the topic of human cloning today. Four
billion years ago, life arose on the earth. Four
billion years later, human beings begin to look
into the secrets hidden in the genes, which are
the most delicate structure of life. A little over
a year ago, scientists completed the Human Genome
Project, which is one of the three most important
advances in scientific history. Cloning is the
major technique developed in the research of
genes. To clone m...

the students in my year (11) are normally
distributed. I have chosen to investigate into
this topic because we were required by this
subject to produce a piece of coursework
assignment, so we decided this would be easiest
and most feasible. This leaves me with the
predicament of trying measuring certain people in
my year group. Are the people in my year at
completely different ends of the scale or are

Research On Brain And Head Injuries
949 words
Head and brain injuries occur when you least
expect them to. The seriousness can range from
just a bump to a mental illness, paralysis, and
even death. The minor bumps and bruises often have
no long term effects, but more serious injuries
often have long term or even permanent side
effects. These serious head injuries often lead to
a psychological disorder from either the injury
itself or the aftermath of the injury (Lehr). To
understand the way an injury to the head or brain
would occur, one mu...

Topic: How do beliefs about the World, and beliefs
about what is valuable, influence the pursuit of
knowledge? The pursuit of scientific knowledge has
often been believed to be an exploration in which
information is gathered solely from
experimentation, but people are slow to realize
that experimentation is only one way, among a
variety of ways, in which scientists gather
information. In their pursuit of new scientific
knowledge, scientists may conduct surveys, or
build on pre-existing informati...

Stem Cell Immune System

Generic Heart Engineering To engineer a heart, the
pathways to its formation through stem cells must
first be discovered through one genome line that
is as healthy as possible (i. e. no signs of an
genetic disorders, especially related to
oncogenes, no family history of heart problems).
Then a process could be made to grow a heart in
vitro through the use of the right cell signaling,
transcription factors and hormones. After this
process is perfected, the genome could be screened
again for any d...

Nuclear Weapons Nuclear Proliferation
594 words
The dangers that can arise from mismanaged
proliferation are profound and numerous. There is
the danger that the proliferation process itself
could give one of the existing nuclear powers a
strong incentive to stop a non-nuclear neighbor
from joining the nuclear club. For example, Israel
(an undeclared Nuclear Power) used force to stop
Iraq from acquiring a nuclear capability. There is
also the danger that an unstable nuclear
competition could emerge among some of the new
nuclear states like Ind...

Michael Ruses book on The Stem Cell Controversy
reveals the glaring choices between the two
perspectives: To put things in context, it can
take six or more embryos to produce enough cells
to treat a Parkinsons sufferer successfully. Six
embryos that have been produced artificially in
order to harvest their cells, or six embryos that
have been conceived naturally and then aborted,
whether or not the abortion was done with the
deliberate end of harvesting stem cells. But is it
right to treat human...

What if Cloning Cloning Benefits What if while
walking down the street you encountered someone
who looked exactly like you? Would you stare in
amazement or would your heart be filled with fear?
At first some people may look upon the idea of
cloning with disgust and question themselves if
humans should play God while others would be
interested and study the many possibilities that
cloning offers. This illustrates the path that
cloning has taken over the latter part of the
twentieth century. At fi...

Therapeutic Cloning Bone Marrow

The purpose of this years study is to determine
what effects does human cloning have on society
and how people react to human cloning. The most
commonly cited ethical and moral arguments against
human cloning seem to originate from religious
perspectives. These religious arguments can even
be made by politicians and scientists with
religious sympathies. Many religious philosophies
teach, for example, that human life is unique and
special and should be created, determined and
controlled only by t...

Sickle Cell Anemia Sickle Cell Disease

The problem is that sickle cell anemia affects
about 72, 000 Americans in the United States.
Sickle cell anemia is an inherited disease in
which the body is unable to produce normal
hemoglobin, an iron-containing protein. Abnormal
hemoglobin can morph cells that can become lodged
in narrow blood vessels, blocking oxygen from
reaching organs and tissues. The effects of sickle
cell anemia are bouts of extreme pain, infectious,
fever, jaundice, stroke, slow growth, organ, and
failure. Sickle cell a...
